In chapter 13, Jesus gives a series of seven very memorable parables, the first four having to do with the growth of the kingdom of God. The first of these, which we’re reading from today, is the parable of the sower. What do we hear? That it’s never a question of God being reticent or holding back his grace. The problem comes from our side: We block the word of God, setting up obstacles to it that prevent it from taking root. There’s the drama, if you want, of the spiritual life. Mass Readings: Reading 1 — Isaiah 55:10-11 Psalm — Psalm 65:10, 11, 12-13, 14 Reading 2 — Romans 8:18-23 Gospel — Matthew 13:1-23 ——VIDEO LINKS——— The Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist: The Glorious Mysteries: A Declaration of Dependence on God | Rededicate 250 Reflection: ———WATCH——— Subscribe to this Channel: Word on Fire Institute Channel: Word on Fire en Español Channel: ———WORD ON FIRE——— Word on Fire: Word on Fire Español: FREE Daily Gospel Reflections (English or Español): ———WORD ON FIRE INSTITUTE——— Join Bishop Barron and over 20,000 evangelists inside the Word on Fire Institute at ———SOCIAL MEDIA——— Bishop Barron Instagram: Bishop Barron Facebook: Bishop Barron Twitter: Word on Fire Instagram: Word on Fire Facebook: Word on Fire Twitter: Word on Fire en Español Instagram: Word on Fire en Español Facebook: Word on Fire en Español Twitter: ———SUPPORT WORD ON FIRE——— Help Bishop Barron continue to produce videos like this: Word on Fire Store: lMjvqzpLOsu XvHH8nxTtke sVq1cb3j8vR gaUMdy8xvph FZ6sOrdNgLP 52urrm2ZCEp
