A good amount of choicest
soil is ready in our hearts, ready to accept the life-giving Word made Flesh
this Christmas. Every seed has a mission - to bring to birth a new creation,
which in due course will bear much fruit. If it decides to survive, there will
be no germination and no new plant, instead, as most seeds do, if it dies to
itself, it will be able to germinate and give rise to a new plant and thus
accomplish its mission. Each of us is a seed that God has planted, to bring to
all the people the Good News. He wants us to sow seeds of faith, hope, joy,
love and much more into the soil of the human hearts. He wants us to die to our
selfish struggles and reach out to the others. Let us on this third day of the
novena, take a firm decision to be fruitful seeds, seeds that will sow in the
hearts of each of God’s people the Good News that our Lord Jesus is coming
soon, to bring peace and joy to all humanity.
