The kingdom of God is like kudzu

If Jesus was living in our day, he would have used parables that connected to our context. I've imagined him saying something like what I wrote here. What do you think about this modern day parable?
"What shall we say the kingdom of God is like, or what parable shall we use to describe it? The kingdom of God is like kudzu, which appears as a small vine. Yet as it grows, it spreads out to cover and overtake anything in its path."
Any guesses as to how this parable reveals something about the kingdom?

You might be interested in a new study on the parables at www.modernparable.com. (Thought I'd say something since my sister was a '96 reb.)
