Matt 13: 10-23

This word puzzle about seeing, hearing, and understanding calls to mind the moments in our lives when we simply cannot see the “forest from the trees”. When our world is in turmoil, or when our loved ones are struggling or have lost their way, it may feel nearly impossible to open the door to God’s grace, even a crack. But somewhere in our hearts, just as for the disciples, there is fertile ground for the abundance of God to take hold, to crowd out even our deepest fears, and bear abundant fruits of the Spirit.


Lord, open our eyes, ears, and hearts to the wonders of your healing presence and the promise of the new life that springs from your Word.
