“Evangelization consists mostly of patience and disregard for constraints of time. Faithful to the Lord’s gift, it also bears fruit. An evangelizing community is always concerned with fruit, because the Lord wants her to be fruitful. It cares for the grain and does not grow impatient at the weeds.
The sower, when he sees weeds sprouting among the grain, does not grumble or overreact. He or she finds a way to let the word take flesh in a particular situation and bear fruits of new life, however imperfect or incomplete these may appear.”
-Pope Francis
Today’s Reflection:
We are called to sow the Word faithfully and let God bring the fruit in His time. Where is God inviting you to sow His Word patiently—without rushing the harvest or pulling up the weeds too soon?
