Luke 8:4-15
How to Develop Good Soil in Your Soul:
1- Good soil revolves around four movements: hearing, holding, obeying, and persevering. If I'm honest with myself how well do I do these four things?
2- Thankfulness is the weed killer in the garden of your life. We tend to not want to bless those who are ungrateful, and how you know if you're ungrateful is if you focus more on what you don't have than what you do have. Remove the weeds of discontentment, superficiality, and never having enough. The grass is not greener somewhere else, it's greener where you water, and take ownership of anything that has stolen the nutrients necessary for it to grow and thrive.
3- You must take ownership of the condition of the soil of your soul before you can ever produce fruit from the seed of God in your life. Don't be mad the seed isn't producing, practice awareness of asking yourself if there if there is something in the soil of my humanity that's not allowing the seeds of God to grow and into mature fruit. Growing weeds is easy, growing fruit is hard.
