Half-Hearted

Jesus tells the parable of the farmer scattering seed to explain how personal and spiritual growth happens in our lives. The seed is God’s Word and the soil is our hearts. If the seed is going to produce anything, it has to push up through the soil, as well as the thorns that threaten to choke the life out of it. There will be thorns and weeds in our lives, but God wants to take what happens to us to accomplish His work in us, so He can fulfill His purpose through us.
