“A sower went out to sow his seed…
Ask Christ to plant seeds in your mind:
He will nourish your thoughts.
Ask Christ to take root in your heart:
He will pardon your sins.
Ask Christ to grow up in your soul:
He will heal all your wounds.
Ask Christ to abide in your body:
For he is your strength.
… and as he sowed, some fell by the wayside; and it was trampled down, and the birds of the air devoured it. Some fell on rock; and as soon as it sprang up, it withered away because it lacked moisture. And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up with it and choked it. But others fell on good ground, sprang up, and yielded a crop a hundredfold.” When He had said these things He cried, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!” (Luke 8:5-8; NKJV).
The LORD is my strength (Exodus 15:2; NLT).
