Parable

The Kingdom of God is like a man who has everything and loses it.
His job.
His home.
His friends.
His partner.
His faith.
Having lost status and livelihood, he turns to his children.
And they – who have nothing themselves – become his everything.
With nothing left to lose, he gives them his love.
Pours himself out for them.
Loves them unconditionally.
Asking nothing but to be loved in return.
And they do.
In this he finds purpose.
In this, he finds true happiness.
In this, he finds the face of God.
Boundless, changeless love.

This is what the kingdom of God looks like:
A man who loses his life and finds it again in love.
