Matthew 3: 2:“Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.” Did you ever see in one of those cooking shows a time when the host had to stop in the middle of the work and go out to buy some flour or a new pan? No, all the needed equipment and ingredients are within reach, or ‘at hand’. That’s what the Kingdom of God is—not nearby, or coming, but ‘at hand’—within reach. It’s right here! All we have to do is reach out for it.
