First Reading: Jeremiah 3: 14-17 Responsorial Psalm: Jeremiah 31: 10, 11-12abcd, 13 Alleluia: Luke 8: 15 Gospel: Matthew 13: 18-23 Jesus is the seed that someone sowed in our hearts and took root deeply. It could have been our parents or grandparents, or an aunt or uncle who sowed Jesus in our hearts. For Pope John Paul II, for example, it was his father who was the sower as his son always saw him on his knees praying the Rosary. The seed that is Jesus grows in you and with you. Allow Jesus to bear fruit through you and with you. Without Him, we can’t do much. This is the 1551st installment of our CFC contemplation series focusing on the daily liturgical readings. [NOTE: Let us listen to our brother Jess Ferrer, Head of the CFC Migrants Program, as he brings us today's reflection. All the regular reflections are between 3-7 minutes long, enough time for us to ponder what God's message is for us individually and to pray that we may live them out in our lives. This video is also available on Couples for Christ’s Facebook page. In You Tube, just type ONLY BY GRACE REFLECTIONS]
