book PNG2112Gospel: Mark 4:26-34
Jesus also said, “In the kingdom of God it is like this: a man scatters seed upon the soil. Whether he is asleep or awake, be it day or night, the seed sprouts and grows; he knows not how. The soil produces of itself; first, the blade; then, the ear; then the full grain in the ear. And when it is ripe for harvesting, they take the sickle for the cutting: the time for the harvest has come.”

Jesus also said, “What is the kingdom of God like? To what shall we compare it? It is like a mustard seed which, when sown, is the smallest of all the seeds scattered upon the soil. But once sown, it grows up and becomes the largest of the plants in the garden; and even grows branches so big, that the birds of the air can take shelter in its shade.”
Jesus used many such stories, in  order  to  proclaim the word to them in a way that they would be able to understand. He would not teach them without parables; but privately, to his disciples, he explained everything.

Reflections
“It is like a mustard seed which, when sown, is the smallest of all the seeds scattered upon the soil.”

We often measure our suc­cess by grand achievements and quantifiable results. But the gos­pel applies a different standard. As Jesus observes, that measure is better taken from nature: the quiet miracle that transforms seeds into a ripened crop; the mystery that produces from the smallest mustard seed the lar­gest plant in the garden. How do we measure our effectiveness? The results are not in our own control; perhaps another gene­ ration will reap. It is given to us to be faithful to our mission, to scatter the seeds. Meanwhile, the power of the gospel ope­ rates in secret, whether we are awake or asleep—perhaps to bear fruit in a form we may never foresee or comprehend. Pope Francis has referred to this strategy for change when he speaks of simply setting proces­ses in motion. As he often likes to say, time is more powerful than spaces: “We must not focus on occupying the spaces where power is exercised, but rather on starting long­run historical pro­cesses... God manifests himself in time and is present in the pro­cesses of history... It requires patience, waiting.”
