The Enemy that Sows Weeds in Us
In Your Presence - A podcast by Eric Nicolai
Categories:
A meditation preached by Fr. Eric Nicolai at Lyncroft Centre in Toronto in July 2023. It's all about the details of the parable of the sower who went out to sow. Matthew tells us: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared. “The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’ “‘An enemy did this,’ he replied. (Matt 13, 24-29) The weeds in our life. The danger of becoming toxic to others by our attitude and behaviour Rather we should have the qualities of good vitamins for the system.
