Falling on Good Soil, It Produced a Crop

Matthew 13:8
기원후 1세기
ORIGINAL
ἄλλα δὲ ἔπεσεν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν τὴν καλήν, καὶ ἐδίδου καρπόν, ὃ μὲν ἑκατόν, ὃ δὲ ἑξήκοντα, ὃ δὲ τριάκοντα
📜 THE VERSE

Still other seed fell on good soil and produced a crop — a hundred, sixty, or thirty times what was sown.

❓ TODAY'S QUESTION

Is the soil of my mind tilled well enough right now to grow a seed a hundredfold?

📝Reflection

The same seed produced anywhere from a hundredfold to thirtyfold — the difference was not the seed but the soil. When good teaching or good opportunity yields no fruit, the fault usually lies not with the seed but with the state of our own mind. In a mind hardened like stone or cluttered like thornbush, even the finest seed cannot take root. If we want a harvest, we must till the field first.
