July 27, 2007- Friday of the 16th Week in Ordinary Time

Readings: Ex 20:1-17, Ps 19:8, 9, 10, 11, Mt 13:18-23

Going Deeper, How do you do it? When you look at the readings for today we have the ten commandments from Exodus and the parable of the sower in the gospel from the Gospel of Matthew. I think that faith is something that has to be cultivated and worked on for its roots to grow deeper. The way we can work on it is through the ten commandments as a start point and then moving out to the living out the Gospel. That is the task of our faith journey, to grow deeper in love with Christ. This is only possible if we get on our knees, examine our life and work on ourselves. As we go through the day, what can we do to grow our roots deeper?
