Matthew 13:51
Jesus now asks the disciples if they understood all of the parables. Some of these parables were told to the multitude, but some of the latter ones were likely shared only with the disciples. Their answer causes us to wonder. Did they really get it? Do we really get it? Having the benefit of years of history since Christ, it is easier for us to understand the truths being described here. so, we wonder if the disciples truly understood what we now know from these parables.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for being concerned with our understanding. Many times authorities will move on with things regardless of the common person’s understanding of the issues. You at least make the Truth available and attainable. You don’t make it too hard for us to ever hope to grasp. Thank You for being so considerate! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
Prayer Requests: Pray for two families that just recently lost loved ones.
