Sowing, Reaping and the Seed
Saturday, 24th week in Ordinary Time
1 Cor 15: 35-37,42-49; Lk 8: 4-15
We are so worried about the plight of the farmers as the tussle for water sharing continues between the two southern states of India. Timely, that the Word today speaks of sowing and reaping, burying and raising... what is crucial here is to understand the seed.
The Word keeps coming to us in various ways in our daily life- daily experiences, accidents, anti social happenings, political developments, international affairs and domestic fights and house hold events... everything keeps giving us a lesson. If only we pay the needed attention to every bit of our life, we would see ourselves learning from them and becoming more and more wise. Added to that if only we hear the Word from the Lord in and through them, we become more and more loving, forgiving, peaceful, in short Godly. That is the experience of Rising... those who are in Christ will rise!
