Then his mother and his brothers came to him, but they could not reach him because of the crowd. And he was told, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.†But he said to them, “My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it.â€

Thanks for this insightful reflection, a very grounded and realistic way of understanding this response by Jesus to the crowd. As you speak of His focus on His father offers the challenge to live and respond out of stillness. Thanks again
