Other seeds fell on rich soil and produced an abundant crop … Listen, anyone who has ears to hear. – Mt. 13:8

Reflection. The seeds of the parable represent the Word of God.  When the Word of God falls on good soil it grows and produces a rich harvest.  You become the good soil when you listen.  Practice the art of spiritual listening.  Read slowly and absorb the wisdom.

Prayer. Holy Spirit, I do listen to Your Word.  Give me the deeper wisdom that comes from loving You.  Help me to produce abundant good fruit.
