GROW

Wednesday of the Sixthteenth Week in Ordinary Time: Year C Matthew 13:1-9 Our gospel for today speaks about the parable of the sower. The story is not about the dirt but the ability of God’s word to survive amidst of the struggles. In today’s reflection I would like to highlights on the seed and the one who sow it. You know what, it was the same seed sown in different spot. What is interesting is that the condition of the soil-(hard path, rocky, thorny and good soil). Friends, our reception to God’s Word can be compared to the different kinds of soils that received the seed. The types of soil represents our struggles and difficulties but with Jesus all obstacles are not the hindrance for us to be productive. With Jesus we can bear more fruits. Production is our mission! Friends, when God releases us from His hands He wanted to unleash our potentials. God knows and aware that some of the seeds will fall in different types of ground but He keeps on planting. Why? Because He knows we will grow and bear fruits. Folks, we are those seeds. God is keep on sowing because He trust and believe in us that amidst of the struggles we will met at the end we will remain fruitful. We grow when we face challenges. Keep going and keep growing because God’s hands is holding and protecting you. Let me end by saying: like the seed you have so much potentials more potentials than you know. Set big goals and believe in yourself. The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be. Friends, you have unlimited potentials within you. Inside of every seed is the potential for an incredible harvest. Your potentials are limitless. Go, do what you were created to do. Never allow those obstacles prevent you from reaching your full potentials. Conclusion: Never allow your problems and worries stops you from being productive. Like the seeds, we have the potentials for greatness. Blessings Fr. Jhack
