BY: Fr Deotacious Chikontwe SMA
Jeremiah 1:1,4-10, Psalm 71:1-6,15,17, Matthew 13:1-9
In our first reading, God appoints Jeremiah as a prophet before his birth. Jeremiah feels inadequate, but God assures him and places His words in Jeremiah’s mouth. He is chosen to root up, tear down, destroy, build, and plant.

FROM OUR GOSPEL READING
In our Gospel Reading, Jesus taught the crowd with a parable about a sower whose seeds fell on various grounds, yielding different results. Some seeds were eaten by birds, some withered, some choked by thorns, and some produced abundant fruit on good soil.
CONCLUSION
Dear friends in Christ, we are called to be like the good soil, ready to receive and act on God’s word. By doing so, we contribute to God’s kingdom and experience the joy of a fruitful life. Let us strive to cultivate our hearts and lives to be receptive and productive.
May you have a Blessed Wednesday everyone.
