Gospel Reflections #767: Jesus is the great farmer of our hearts

Matthew 13:3 "The sower went out to sow seed."

Jesus came from heaven to sow the seeds of life in the field that is us on earth.

We are the field.

Jesus never stopped sowing no matter how rough our field is.

Our field is being tilled through various experiences, and the hard soil is being softened and loosened.

And the time will come when Jesus' never-giving-up sowing will bear fruit.

We are sown by Jesus, nurtured by Jesus, and allowed to bear fruit by Jesus.

Only when we bear fruit do we get the seed from it, and we are now the sower of it.

We become sowers only when Jesus bears fruit.

This is God's way and order.

Jesus sows the seed in every person.

It is Jesus who plows our fields, and it is Jesus who manages them until they bear fruit.

We just need to grow in the environment of God's love.
