Mark 4:21–25

Jesus said to them, "Is a lamp brought in to be put
under the bushel basket, or under the bed, and not on the lampstand? For there
is nothing hidden, except to be disclosed; nor is anything secret, except to
come to light. Let anyone with ears to hear listen!" And he said to them,
"Pay attention to what you hear; the measure you give will be the measure
you get, and still more will be given you. For to those who have, more will be
given; and from those who have nothing, even what they have will be taken
away."

Reflection

·        
Do I always gain some insight by exposure to
Jesus’ parables?

·        
In listening, hearing and following Jesus, Do I
grow in familiarity with his voice and hear more as to what I have?
