A Heart That Receives

Scripture: Matthew 13:23 (ESV) “As for what was sown on good soil…”

Devotional Thought:

Good soil is described simply: it hears, it understands, and it bears fruit.

But Jesus doesn’t explain how the soil becomes good. He doesn’t give a process or a method. He just shows what happens when the Word is truly received.

And then He leaves us with the question.  Not about the seed, and not about the sower…but about us.

Reflection: What kind of soil are you?

Prayer Direction: Ask the Lord to show you the true condition of your heart…and to give you ears to hear.
