Today's readings explore the contrast between human failure and God's patient grace. We hear the troubling story of King David's abuse of power and betrayal of trust, paired with his psalm of repentance. Jesus then offers parables about God's kingdom growing quietly and surely, despite our human weaknesses and failings.

Today's Readings:

  • First Reading: 2 Samuel 11:1-4a, 5-10a, 13-17
  • Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 51:3-4, 5-6a, 6bcd-7, 10-11
