Title: Good Soil

(S) cripture:
    Luke 8:15 (NASB) “But the seed in the good soil, these are the ones who have heard the word in an honest and good heart, and hold it fast, and bear fruit with perseverance.

(O) bservation:
    Jesus tells the disciples that there are four types of people that hear the Word and respond. Each is represented by a type of soil. It is important to be good soil, fertile, where God’s Word grows and flourishes.

(A) pplication:
    I want to be good soil so I must do some work each day. I must keep the ground of my heart tilled and soft. I need to weed my heart of the things that would choke my faith. I need to get proper nourishment each day so that the Word can grow in me.

(P) rayer:
    Lord I thank you for the discipline of the Life Journal reading plan. It keeps me in your Word each day. Let me flourish in you and grow to be the person you created me to be. Amen
