Father Csaba’s reflection on the gospel Monday 30 July 2018
Mustard seed !? The Blessed Virgin Mary appeared in Fatima over a hundred years ago on 13 May 1917 , to three uneducated little village children. She greeted them and encouraged them to pray and these days the 13 May in Portugal is the feast of the family, a big national feast ! This year as well more than a million people gathered to greet our Heavenly Mother on this beautiful day !! The little mustard seed became a large , spreading tree , many people know the story of these three children all over the world ! We should also say upon the request of our Blessed Lady of Fatima after each decade of the rosary the prayer :”Oh my Jesus, pardon us, and save us from the fire of hell; draw all souls to Heaven, especially those in most need.”.
Lets plant with love our little mustard seeds , lets trust in the Lord , because He is the only one who can grant us the growth !!
With love ,

He put before them another parable: ‘The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that someone took and sowed in his field; it is the smallest of all the seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches.’ He told them another parable: ‘The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed in with three measures of flour until all of it was leavened.’ Jesus told the crowds all these things in parables; without a parable he told them nothing. This was to fulfil what had been spoken through the prophet: ‘I will open my mouth to speak in parables'.
Matthew 13:31-35
