September 1
Introduction
Jesus often used parables to teach about the Kingdom of God. In today’s reading, the parable of the sower demonstrates the importance of having an obedient heart in order to receive and retain the message. The reading concludes with Jesus expanding upon the meaning of family in the Kingdom of God.
Today’s Scripture: Luke 8:15
The seeds that fell in good soil stand for those who hear the message and retain it in a good and obedient heart, and they persist until they bear fruit.
Today’s Reading
Luke 8:4-21
Reflect
Today’s reading includes several references to listening and hearing the message (verses 8, 10, 12-15, 18). As you read today’s passage, what do you “hear” being said to you? Hearing the message and retaining it is equated to bearing fruit. What kind of “fruit” will you bear today?
Pray
Lord Jesus, teach me to be obedient to your Word so that I bear fruit that gives glory to you. Grant me an obedient heart so that I serve as good soil for the planting of your precious Word for the advancement of your Kingdom. Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading
