Sacred Echoes – Knead Him Because We Need Him (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Baking bread was harder to do back in Jesus' day...it took a lot of work! They had to create the yeast themselves, and knead it throughout the dough. The Kingdom of Heaven is like this! The yeast has to travel through all of the bread in order to evenly rise. Our relationship with Jesus is the same way...we must knead Him because we need Him.
