The Dripping Tap

The Dripping Tap

DAY 10 — “The Dripping Tap”


“Welcome again. We are in Day 10 of Advent,
and this is Tiny Advent Parables with Fr. Dominic —
where simple, ordinary moments
help prepare our hearts for the coming of Christ.”


“Today’s story begins in a quiet kitchen…
with a tap that wouldn’t stop dripping.”


“It was late at night,
and the whole house was silent —
except for a stubborn tap in the kitchen
that kept dripping into a metal bucket.
Drip…
drip…
drip.
At first it was irritating,
a tiny sound that felt louder in the stillness.
But by morning,
something surprising had happened.
The bucket,
which had seemed so empty the night before,
was now half full.
Not because of a flood.
Not because of a big moment.
But because of tiny drops —
small, steady, and unnoticed through the night —
quietly filling what had felt empty.”


“Grace often comes like that —
not in dramatic moments,
not in life-changing events,
but in small drops
that accumulate over time.
A short prayer whispered before sleep.
A kind word offered during a busy day.
A moment of silence you carve out
in the middle of noise.
A gentle act of forgiveness,
even if your heart isn’t ready for the whole thing yet.
We underestimate these drops,
but they fill the bucket of our soul
with God’s quiet presence.
Advent teaches us
that holiness grows slowly,
healing happens gradually,
and God often works in whispers
rather than thunder.
Your spiritual life doesn’t need a tidal wave —
it just needs consistency.
One drop at a time.”


“So today, pause and ask yourself:
‘What small drop of grace is God giving me today?
And what small drop can I offer Him in return?’
Don’t seek big miracles.
Just welcome the steady drip of God’s love.
And whisper this Advent prayer:
‘Lord, fill me slowly and faithfully
with Your quiet grace.’
This is Tiny Advent Parables with Fr. Dominic.
May your soul be filled, drop by drop, today.”

Episode 04 The Parable of the Mustard Seed

Episode 04 The Parable of the Mustard Seed

Hello and welcome to 2 Minutes with the Lord, our podcast where we explore ancient parables and their relevance in our modern lives. I am your host, Fr. Dominic Veigas SVD, and in today's episode, we will be discussing one of the shortest yet most profound parables, The Parable of the Mustard Seed. Despite its age, this story holds much significance for us even today. It speaks volumes about the potential and growth that can come from even the smallest of beginnings. So, let us delve deeper into how something as insignificant as a tiny mustard seed can teach us about the strength and impact of our actions. This parable can be found in the Gospel of Matthew 13:31-32. Jesus tells the story of a mustard seed, saying, "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. Though it is the smallest of all seeds, when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so the birds come and perch in its branches." This metaphor for the Kingdom of Heaven beautifully illustrates how small beginnings can lead to expansive and impactful outcomes.
