Mark 4:18-19
“Those (seeds) sown among thorns are another sort. They are the people who hear the word, but worldly anxiety, the lure of riches, and the craving for other things intrude and choke the word, and it bears no fruit.”

God’s word comes to us in many ways…through scripture, nature, silent prayer, music, our church experiences, and other people, etc. There are many “seeds” being sown…but what is the condition of our “soil”? Are we cultivating our soil so that it is fertile for spiritual growth? What other words, music, media, or friends might be poisoning our soil and “choking” God’s seeds?
