yeasty


“And he cautioned them, saying, ‘Watch out – beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod.’” Mark 8:15

there is that yeast
made up of lies,
false promises, quick fixes,
and ridiculous claims
that can cause our anger
to rise so quickly and easily,
or that yeast you work in us,
proofing us in your heart
and needing us to become
loaves of grace, peace, and hope
