11th DURING THE YEAR Cycle B SUNDAY Regina Listening the “Lord, Jesus” by T. L. de Victoria, let’s work together in the growth of the Kingdom

Jesus tells us the secrets of the Kingdom, in parables Galilee fields that evoke the parables (Lake in the background)

Mk 4:26-34 He also said, 'This is what the kingdom of God is like Mk 4:26-34 He also said, 'This is what the kingdom of God is like. A man scatters seed on the land. Detail of the Lake, in front of Capernaum, where Jesus told the parables

The Kingdom is sown in furrows of our land Ceramics SB If we are caring, It can meet us anywhere

Night and day, while he sleeps, when he is awake, the seed is sprouting and growing; how, he does not know.

It was sown on a Good Friday We will never stop the strength of this seed

Of its own accord the land produces first the shoot, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.

For a gratuitous gift, the earth produces spikes Human greed often monopolizes the generosity of nature

And when the crop is ready, at once he starts to reap because the harvest has come.'

The fields in the world are full of grain At the time of the harvest of the Kingdom, that our hearts will widen, how the one of God, to the extent of the world

He also said, 'What can we say that the kingdom is like He also said, 'What can we say that the kingdom is like? What parable can we find for it? It is like a mustard seed which, at the time of its sowing, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth. Yet once it is sown it grows into the biggest shrub of them all and puts out big branches so that the birds of the air can shelter in its shade.'

What is small and unnoticed... ... is meant to be the center of life Do not click

Using many parables like these, he spoke the word to them, so far as they were capable of understanding it. He would not speak to them except in parables, but he explained everything to his disciples when they were by themselves.

Jesus explains to us the growth of the Kingdom in the world We must cooperate with God, as if everything depended on us, but knowing that everything depends on Him Jesus explains to us the growth of the Kingdom in the world Regina

Jesus, grant that hosting the Kingdom that you have sown in us, we make it work
