The seed which fell among the thorns, these are the ones who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with worries and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to maturity. Luke 8:14
The seed pictured in these parables is the Word of God. When it grows among thorns it can be choked off easily. The thorns are the weeds of worry, riches, and pleasures. Most of our lives will never be blessed with no weeds. Most of us will have seeds and weeds. Our seed is not destined to fail because we have weeds. We need to recognize our thorn problem and make a special effort to thrive. Let's not give up because our soil isn't everything we always wanted. Instead, let's have strong resolved to nurture the seed over the weed. God can give us victory, and make us fruitful.
