July 31, 2012 – Matthew 13:37-43 – Jesus Explains the Parable of the Weeds

He answered, “The one who sows the good seed is the son of Man, the field is the world, and the good seeds are the children of the kingdom; the weeds are the children of the evil one, and the enemy who sowed them is the devil, the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. Just as the weeds are collected and burned up with dire, so will it be at the end of the age. The son of man will send his angels, they will collect out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all evildoers, and they will throw them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the king of their Father’s. Let anyone with ears listen.


Father Glenn McDonald spoke about the forgotten spirituality of the sacred heart of Jesus, an image of His heart burning with fire and entwined with thorns. The sacred heart flows from the experience of pining with unrequited love just like unwanted love for children, those facing odds with parents, and families that are disenfranchised of rights or deprived of privileges. The sacred heart is about the experience when you love someone and felt unanswered and painful. The sacred heart is the point of contact to speak to young people on how to love and deal with experiences with unanswered love. Let us pray to the Sacred Heart of Jesus to grant us with the gift of unfailing love especially those who are disconnected with their families and loved ones.
