Mass Intro. From: Nivard...
3 Wed January 29: Mark 4:1-20
Adapted,
Those who hear the word and accept it.
Jesus' parable of the Sower is aimed at the hearers of his word.
There are different ways of accepting God's word and they produce different kinds of fruit accordingly.
There is the prejudiced hearer who has a shut mind.
Then there is the shallow hearer. He or she fails to think things out or think them through; they lack depth. They may initially respond with an emotional reaction; but when it wears off their mind wanders to something else.
God gives grace to those who hunger for his word that they may understand his will and have the strength to live according to it.
Father in heaven, open our eyes to your deeds, and our ears to the sound of your call, that we may understand your will for our lives and live according to it, through Christ our Lord.
