Grace for your spirit March 17, 2008

Grace for your spirit
And the one on whom see was sown among the thorns, this is the man who hears the word, and the worry of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. Mt 13:22

In this parable, the seed that is sown in the word of God. It is seed that has the potential of bringing forth a great harvest, up to a hundred times more than sown. Other places it does not do as well. The soil with the thorns starts off pretty well, but later the crop is choked off and dies. How many times has this been repeated in the garden of God. He calls, we hear, we want to grow, but the opposition wins. Worries of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches are right in front of us, and the word is way over there somewhere. The word can be victorious in our lives, but we must overcome the weeds. Weed that garden right now.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
