"But those that were sown on the good soil are the ones who hear the word and accept it and bear fruit, thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold.” -- Mark 4:20

Spring will be upon us in no time at all. With this season many will be busy planting new flowers and nurturing their gardens. As we walk through our neighborhood we will see some large, some not so large and some rather simple gardens. Yet, each one will have their own beauty.
In the same way the gospel seeds will be planted throughout the world today. As usual, many will reject the message as nothing more than foolishness. Yet, there will be a select few that will receive the truth with great joy. Their lives will be changed and in the years ahead they will produce a wonderful spiritual harvest. Large, medium or small, each one will have their own beauty.
What kind of soil are you today my friend? Has the gospel story fallen upon your heart and produced a great crop of thirty, sixty or even a hundred fold? Or has this message passed from your memory like the morning dew? May the good news about Jesus change your life and deliver you from the fruitless pursuit of worldly gain and unending worries! Rejoice and yield your heart to the work of the Lord as He brings about His beauty in your life.
