HE WHO HAS EARS
Look Closely: Jesus opens this series of parables by telling the people to listen. At the end of the parable of the sower, He says, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.” Then, in the parable of the lamp, He tells them the same thing. Compare this to God’s words to Israel in Isaiah 6:9-10 and to Paul’s teaching in Romans 11:7-12.
-What do these words teach you about human nature? What do they teach you about God?
-When Jesus explains the parable of the sower, can you identify your own spiritual journey in his description of the soils?
Challenge: What is God saying to you? What are you going to do about it?
Pause to Pray: Holy Spirit, give me ears that hear and eyes to see truth and grace in Your Word. I want to be a seed that grows and becomes fruitful. Lead me and teach me… Amen.
