A Parable

A Parable Mar.17
Remember the parable of the Sower in Mt. 13. Most emphasize the Sower and the seed. But think about the ground. There was the shallow path; the birds ate the seed. There was the rocky places; not much soil. Some seed fell among ground with thorns, which choked the good plants, but then some fell among good soil where good crops produced. You need to ask: What makes the difference in the soil?
The Holy Spirit gives Love (faith), Joy (laughter), and Peace (openness) to plough and cultivate the soil. Cultivate the way you live your life.
