The texts in the Roman Catholic Lectionary today are encouraging believers to move to mature levels in their lives in the Body of Christ. Paul reminds the Ephesians and us that we have been gifted by the Spirit for service to the Body of Christ. The adult exercise of this gift is the path to deeper understanding of the mystery that is our relationship with the Divine. Luke’s Gospel, through Jesus examples and the parable of the barren fig points out to us that we should not delay in our movement toward holiness. We are spared the circumstances of living which may seriously threaten our growth. Jesus, the gardener, will continue to offer us the nourishment we require for growth.
