#4 Moving Forward

Starting with a moment of thankfulness.

“Lord God, thank you for an opportunity to know you. I am thankful for a way to discover who you are.”

Take a moment and think of something you are thankful for and tell God about it. 

Continuing with a short prayer.

“God, I do want to know you, understand what you are like, feel like I am near you and pleasing you. Please help me to hear you through these stories you left for me to read.”

Praying is that simple. Is there anything else you want to tell God?

The Sower and the Soil

It might be different than you expect, but after the story there will be a few questions to help you discover for yourself about who God is and what that means for your life.

On that day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the seaside. Great multitudes gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat and sat; and all the multitude stood on the beach. He spoke to them many things in parables, saying, “Behold, a farmer went out to sow.  As he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and devoured them.  Others fell on rocky ground, where they didn’t have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of earth. When the sun had risen, they were scorched. Because they had no root, they withered away. Others fell among thorns. The thorns grew up and choked them. Others fell on good soil and yielded fruit: some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
Matthew 13:1-9
