“I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase.” (1st Cor. 3:6)




 “I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase.” (1st Cor. 3:6)


Paul uses an agricultural analogy to remind the Corinthians that none of those who labor for Christ is either, better than another, or more integral in the propagation of the Church. Each of us has a unique part to play in planting and watering the seeds that grow faith, but it is ultimately God Who causes that growth. Just as it says in the Psalms, “Unless the Lord builds the house, those who labor, labor in vain” (Psalm 127:1). Still....we must each do our part!


Fr. John
