Reflecting on our Sunday Readings with Fr William PillaiThis Sunday we have the special privilege of hearing Jesus Himself interpreting one of His parables. He gives three basic reasons why the Word is not accepted into our hearts: lack of understanding, lack of discipline, lack of prioritisation.
Before we get into the details, we must keep in mind that Jesus Himself in Person is the seed. Jesus is the Logos, a Greek word that means Word. The Word must take root in us! Jesus sows far and wide through various means, because He is destined for the whole world. Why did the Word come to Israel? Because the Jews were the first to hear the Word of God. Israel was the means by which the Word could be understood and received.
But when you take something seriously, you surround it with some kind of rigour. Is it not true that for many a sense of rigour, discipline, are lacking and with the passage of time, the practise of the faith fades? The Word of God must be the central and defining dynamic of one’s life. To know the will of God, the mind of God, one has to understand His purpose and path. Without it you lose your way amidst all the conflicting voices and inclinations of the world. It does not mean that you should not be interested in a lot of other things. It is the Word of God that orders and organises all the other interests in our lives.
