CLICK HERE FOR VIDEO to this reflectionMatthew 13:24-30Jesus proposed another parable to the crowds, saying:"The kingdom of heaven may be likened to a manwho sowed good seed in his field. While everyone was asleep his enemy cameand sowed weeds all through the wheat, and then went off. When the crop grew and bore fruit, the weeds appeared as well. The slaves of the householder came to him and said,'Master, did you not sow good seed in your field? Where have the weeds come from?'He answered, 'An enemy has done this.'His slaves said to him, 'Do you want us to go and pull them up?'He replied, 'No, if you pull up the weedsyou might uproot the wheat along with them. Let them grow together until harvest;then at harvest time I will say to the harvesters,"First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles for burning;but gather the wheat into my barn."'"

(A meditation based on a reading from the Gospel of Luke 10:38-42)Today's meditation examines the recounting of Jesus' visit to the home of Martha and Mary in the town of Bethany. We will recognize the ways we are like Martha in our daily lives, and how we can learn to be more like Mary.

CLICK HERE FOR VIDEO to this reflectionMatthew 13:1-9On that day, Jesus went out of the house and sat down by the sea. Such large crowds gathered around himthat he got into a boat and sat down,and the whole crowd stood along the shore. And he spoke to them at length in parables, saying:"A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seed fell on the path,and birds came and ate it up. Some fell on rocky ground, where it had little soil. It sprang up at once because the soil was not deep,and when the sun rose it was scorched,and it withered for lack of roots. Some seed fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it. But some seed fell on rich soil and produced fruit,a hundred or sixty or thirtyfold. Whoever has ears ought to hear."

What does it mean to listen with the ear of your heart?Join us as we spend time with St. Benedict, whose wisdom has guided Christians for more than 1,500 years. Through prayer, reflection, and quiet listening, we'll explore how God speaks through ordinary moments, daily work, and the people we encounter each day.
