S – Matthew 13:23 “As for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it. He indeed bears fruit and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty.”

O – The soil of my life determines if I will hear and understand the Word.  The result of hearing and understanding the Word is bearing spiritual fruit.

A – What kind of soil am I?  Can I change the soil of my heart?  I am burdened to pray for God to soften me.

P – Lord, make my heart receptive to your Word.  I want to be good soil.  Make Anna and Rebecca’s heart good soil.  Make the hearts of those in my community, in my church, in Dallas, in South Texas, In Guatemala, in Bangladesh, in India, etc. good soil.  Help me be faithful to scatter the seed of your Word.

Are you good soil?  What can you do to transform your heart?
