Jesus taught, “Knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of God has been granted to you; but to the rest, they are made known through parables so that ‘they may look but not see, and hear but not understand.'” – Lk 8:10
prepare well the ground
place it well off the beaten path
away from choking thorns
and things that block the light
weed out entanglements
remove all hardness of heart
baptize with life giving water
and nurture daily with love
then prepare to be
surprised by providence
Longing For Water
