I was reading about the parable of the seeds in Luke today. It is interesting to think of all the Word that is sown and where it falls and what happens to it.
I think of where I would be if I had not chosen to cling to the Word and see fruit grow.
I think of how I have watched so many let the seed be snatched away so easily.
I think of all the Bibles I have in my home and the people around the world who have none.
I think of the story I read my sons about the little child who wanted a Bible of her own so badly that she worked and saved and walked for miles to get one.
Why don't we make reading the Word and writing it on our hearts more of a priority?
We are such self-centered people who let business get in our way.
My dear friend, Carolyn, taught last Wednesday at women's group that BUSY means Being Under Satan's Yoke. I think this is an excellent reminder of what is happening when we are so otherwise occupied that we can't even get into the Word and sit at His feet.
Lord, thank you that you love us wholly and completely, even when we drift. You are so faithful to the faithless! It humbles me today.
