Fr. Patrick Briscoe, O.P., on Being Like Mustard Seeds

"Jesus, teaching his disciples, tells them that the Kingdom is like a mustard seed. When planted, the mustard seed is among the smallest. If you've never seen a mustard seed, it's smaller than a peppercorn! But the Lord says, 'once it is sown, it springs up and becomes the largest of plants and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the sky can dwell in its shade.'

"The mustard seed foreshadows Christ's plan for the Church. . . ."

In a recent commentary, Father Patrick Briscoe, O.P., reflected on our calling to "transform the world; to change, by our faith, the flavor of daily living."
