The Empty Chair at the Dinner

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.
