29 And it came to pass that there came a voice
as if it were above the cloud of darkness, saying:
Repent ye, repent ye, and seek no more to destroy my servants whom I have sent unto you to declare good tidings. • • •
I want to think that I cannot tell who they are whom the Lord is referring to as His servants. They could be anyone. The Lord works in mysterious ways and calls mysteriously imperfect people to do his perfect will. Recieve the glad tidings from every person that the Lord has sent into this world!

Matt 13: 45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:
46 Who, when he had found one apearl of great price, went and sold ball that he had, and bought it.
Our bishop pointed out that it is the kingdom of Heaven that is like a merchant seeking goodly pearls. Not us seeking out the gospel. God and Christ go to find us. We are the goodly pearls and he and his Son have sold all that they have (paid the ultimate price) to purchase or redeem us. Once purchased, we are not our own, but belong to our Lord and should serve him, and be used according to his wisdom.
