October 1: Evening

Grow in grace and knowledge.

First the stalk, then the head.

… Grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.
Eph 4

… First the stalk, then the head, then the full kernel in the head. Mk 4 ⦿ … Until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
Eph 4
