Solution to The Parable of the Sower

I am reading in bible where Jesus tells this story about a farmer scattering seeds and the different types of soil the seed falls on making all the difference. (Mark 4:1-20) The disciples, these are the guys who are following Jesus and learning his ways, ask about this story. He begins to unpack the story by telling them the seed is the word of God and the soil is people’s lives.

The story as Jesus tells it says the farmer was scattering the seed and it feel on different types of soil but only the good soil was receptive. Solution: invest in the Soil (people’s lives) so they will be receptive to the seed (word of God).

The Love of God creates an atmosphere where people are receptive to the word of God!
