Alleluia, alleluia!
May the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ
enlighten the eyes of our mind,
so that we can see what hope his call holds for us.
Alleluia!
Gospel
Matthew 13:24-43
Let them both grow till the harvest
Jesus put another parable before the crowds: ‘The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field. While everybody was asleep his enemy came, sowed darnel all among the wheat, and made off. When the new wheat sprouted and ripened, the darnel appeared as well. The owner’s servants went to him and said, “Sir, was it not good seed that you sowed in your field? If so, where does the darnel come from?” “Some enemy has done this” he answered. And the servants said, “Do you want us to go and weed it out?” But he said, “No, because when you weed out the darnel you might pull up the wheat with it. Let them both grow till the harvest; and at harvest time I shall say to the reapers: First collect the darnel and tie it in bundles to be burnt, then gather the wheat into my barn.”’
He put another parable before them: ‘The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed which a man took and sowed in his field. It is the smallest of all the seeds, but when it has grown it is the biggest shrub of all and becomes a tree so that the birds of the air come and shelter in its branches.’
He told them another parable: ‘The kingdom of heaven is like the yeast a woman took and mixed in with three measures of flour till it was leavened all through.’
In all this Jesus spoke to the crowds in parables; indeed, he would never speak to them except in parables. This was to fulfil the prophecy:
I will speak to you in parables
and expound things hidden since the foundation of the world.
Then, leaving the crowds, he went to the house; and his disciples came to him and said, ‘Explain the parable about the darnel in the field to us.’ He said in reply, ‘The sower of the good seed is the Son of Man. The field is the world; the good seed is the subjects of the kingdom; the darnel, the subjects of the evil one; the enemy who sowed them, the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; the reapers are the angels. Well then, just as the darnel is gathered up and burnt in the fire, so it will be at the end of time. The Son of Man will send his angels and they will gather out of his kingdom all things that provoke offences and all who do evil, and throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth. Then the virtuous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Listen, anyone who has ears!’
Notes from meeting on 16 July
Picture of Our Blessed Mother making bread!
My dear little children, you see me making bread and then I shall bake it, then make it ready for eating! This bread satisfies your physical hunger, but think about when I carried Jesus in my Virginal Womb, when He came forth in all His beauty and humility was He not the True Bread of Life which was to fill Mankind and feed his spiritual soul?
My little ones Holy Communion is the ultimate nourishment that opens you up to the Holy Word and all the good that comes from the Most High, always value this gift from my Son Jesus, He who came into this World tiny and little, and left this World in pain and ignominy, but for your sakes before going back to the Father left you with Himself in form of Bread and Wine and by doing so leaving Himself open to sacrilege’s and pain.
My dear ones when you receive my Son make reparation for those who separate themselves from this gift or worse hurt my Son in ways unthinkable! My Motherly Heart is so full of love for those who love my Son, but the sorrow I feel for those who are far away from Him makes my Motherly Heart beak with pain.
Please pray for yourselves, your Families, those who are so far away and with your prayers and worthy reception of my Son, My Heart will soar to Heaven and we will bring down many graces upon the World.
Pray for my Priest sons who are so dear to my Motherly Heart and without whom there would be no Heavenly Bread. Know that when you receive my Son my Hearts soars to Heaven with joy.
Mary Mother of Jesus your Saviour.
We are all different kinds of bread but all being one bread!
