At times I used to think that the soil was bad. But now I feel that I am good soil because I try my hardest to walk the strait and narrow. Which what we all should do to enter the Gates of Heaven. By: Julie Rainey - May 06, 2007 - Public Category: The Parable of the Sower

God has blessed me with most excellent soil and I have foolishly refused to grow until recently. Now, I am much happier in my quest to know my Lord and to do His Will and live for Him. He Lives! By: Patty - April 30, 2007 - Public Category: The Parable of the Sower

My life has been rocky but good soil has been found and a spiritual life has taken root.Though I had spent my childhood and teens in a church, I was in an car accident where I burned 43% of my body and broke my neck.I blamed God for this and turned to drugs and a dark path for many years.I have returned to my faith and repented before God and begun my walk with God anew.Their has been many types of soil in my garden but deep rich soil has been found.

how can the dead hear the voice of the son of god?
On that day Jesus went
out of the house, and sat by the seaside. Great multitudes gathered to him,
so that he entered into a boat, and sat, and all the multitude stood on
the beach. He spoke to
them many things in parables, saying, "Behold, a
farmer went out to sow. As he sowed, some seeds fell by
the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them. Others fell on rocky ground,
where they didn't have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because
they had no depth of earth. When the sun had risen, they were
scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away. Others fell among thorns. The
thorns grew up and choked them: and others fell on good soil, and
yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some
thirty. He who has ears
to hear, let him hear." The disciples came,
and said to him, "Why do you speak to them in parables?"
He answered them,
"To you it is given to know the mysteries of the
Kingdom of Heaven, but it is not given to them. For whoever has, to him will be
given, and he will have abundance, but whoever doesn't have, from him will
be taken away even that which he has. Therefore I speak to them in
parables, because seeing they don't see, and hearing, they don't hear,
neither do they understand. In them the prophecy of Isaiah
is fulfilled, which says,
'By hearing you will hear,
and will in no way understand;
Seeing you will see,
and will in no way perceive:
for this people's
heart has grown callous,
their ears are dull of hearing,
they have closed their eyes;
or else perhaps they might perceive with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their heart,
and should turn again;
and I would heal them.'
"But blessed are your eyes,
for they see; and your ears, for they hear. For most certainly I tell you
that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things which you
see, and didn't see them; and to hear the things which you hear, and
didn't hear them.
"Hear, then, the parable of
the farmer. When anyone
hears the word of the Kingdom, and doesn't understand it, the evil one
comes, and snatches away that which has been sown in his heart. This is
what was sown by the roadside. What was sown on the rocky
places, this is he who hears the word, and immediately with joy receives
it; yet he has no root
in himself, but endures for a while. When oppression or persecution arises
because of the word, immediately he stumbles. What was sown among the thorns,
this is he who hears the word, but the cares of this age and the
deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. What was sown on the good
ground, this is he who hears the word, and understands it, who most
certainly bears fruit, and brings forth, some one hundred times as much,
some sixty, and some thirty."
