Scripture – Matthew 13:3-7

3 And he told them many things in parables, saying: “Listen! A sower went out to sow. 4 And as he sowed, some seeds fell on a path, and the birds came and ate them up. 5 Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and they sprang up quickly, since they had no depth of soil. 6 But when the sun rose, they were scorched, and since they had no root, they withered away. 7 Other seeds fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them.

Prayer Focus: The first parable Jesus tells in this chapter is about a sower. He seems to be a quite haphazard sower as the seeds he throws fall all over the place. Some on a path where they are eaten by birds. Some on rocky ground where they spring up quickly, but have no root and so they do not last. Still more seeds fell among thorns where they young plants were choked. Pray that you might appreciate the abundance of a sower who would sow like this. Pray that you might recognize the risks that are present in the world that seek to thwart the kingdom of heaven and God’s abundance.
