Clearly, this parable comes from the period of Church life after the death and resurrection of Jesus and reflects the way the early Christians are coming terms with the reality that lots of people don’t enthusiastically embrace Jesus and his message. It has a lot of reference for us any Christian community today too. Through it all, the message is clearly that the initiative is with God and our response depends on our readiness to allow God to lead and change us and not allow ourselves to be swamped and distracted by voices and messages that will take us away from the Lord’s loving way of leading us.
