Scripture: Mark 4:1-20

The parable of the seed and the sower has many meanings and applications. The larger purpose of this parable was to show that despite obstacles,Gods’ Word will accomplish it’s purpose. At a more personal level,this parable speaks about the condition of our hearts as to how we receive His Word. Our hearts and lives are not always ready for the truth of Jesus message. The good news is that Jesus was well aware of this and gives us some leeway in how we respond and how fruitful we may be in our spiritual journey.
