I would like to share a Scripture that has been on my mind for a few hundred years: Luke 8:15 reads, “But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop.”

Are you good or lousy soil?

When the Word of God (seed) is sown on you do you have a noble and good heart?

Do you actually hear it and not just a portion of it?

Do you retain it (remember)(HUH?)?

Do you persevere with it in your life?

Do you persevere with it in your life enough to produce a crop that God approves?

I just share these questions so you can examine who you are.
