Today, we’re taking a deeper look at a story Jesus told about a farmer planting seeds. Jesus often told parables that used everyday situations like this to teach a larger lesson about the kingdom of God. In this story, Jesus said that the soil the seeds were planted in represented different types of people hearing God’s Word. We can fail to embrace God’s truth when we give in to the enemy, fail to develop a deep relationship with God, or hold to the desires of this world. Instead, we need to let the Bible take root in our life so that we can grow spiritually. The question is, are our hearts good soil so God’s Word can take root and grow?
