Sow righteousness for yourselves, reap the fruit of unfailing love, and break up your unplowed ground; for it is time to seek the LORD, until he comes and showers his righteousness on you.Hosea 10:12
Many had gardens this summer or may live on a farm. The soil is very crucial to a good crop. If it is not fertilized and moist it will be hard to grow anything.
Your heart is kind of like that earthly soil. It can be hard and therefore not open to Christian growth. A ‘seed’ or two may drop on it such as a good message or worship music or a testimony but if the heart’s ‘soil’ is unprepared it won’t take root.
How is the soil of your heart my friend? Does it need to be plowed and tended to in order to let the ‘seed’ that is planted take root and grow? Ponder that.
PRAYER:Oh Lord I want my heart to always be prepared to accept truth and for it to grow and produce a harvest. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
