Daily Thoughts - Rich Soil.
"But as for the seed that fell on rich soil, they are the ones who, when they have heard the word, embrace it with a generous and good heart, and bear fruit through perseverance." Luke 8:15
The Word of God is sown, do we listen to what God is saying to us? I sit this morning listening in the stillness of my heart. Reflecting upon my week and the last several days. The week was not traveled alone, each day I arise and sit with Jesus in His Word and then we walked together through the day.
Life still comes at us with it's difficulties and joys but when grounded in the soil of Christ, it is He who speaks the loudest. The disciples who were traveling with Jesus, listening to Him speak on this parable were firmly planted, they faced the same days we do.
Rich soil has been prepared and is being prepared, this is where we are to plant ourselves. I go back to the importance of daily prayer, this prepares the ground for Him. "I am confident of this, that the one who began a good work in you will continue to complete it until the day of Christ Jesus." Philippians 1:6
Dear Father, I lean on You for strength, we have lived this week together, never were we separated. You know my heart beats for you, there is much to be gleaned when we sit together enjoying each other's company. I pray for those listening and tilling the ground, prayer doesn't change life, it changes how we handle life. Thank You Father for the grace to listen and sit at Your feet. In Jesus name, Amen.
Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b
