The biggest secret to spiritual growth is having
a receptive heart.

Mark 48,9 Still other seed fell on good soil. It
came up, grew and produced a crop, multiplying
thirty, sixty, or even a hundred times. Then
Jesus said, "He who has ears to hear, let him
hear.

10When he was alone, the Twelve and the others
around him asked him about the parables. 11He
told them, "The secret of the kingdom of God has
been given to you. But to those on the outside
everything is said in parables 12so that, "'they
may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever
hearing but never understanding otherwise they
might turn and be forgiven!'"

Mark 413-25 The farmer sows the word. Some
people are like seed along the path, where the
word is sown. As soon as they hear it, Satan
comes and takes away the word that was sown in
them. Others, like seed sown on rocky places,
hear the word and at once receive it with joy.
10
But since they have no root, they last only a
short time. When trouble or persecution comes
because of the word, they quickly fall away.
Still others, like seed sown among thorns, hear
the word but the worries of this life, the
deceitfulness of wealth and the desires for other
things come in and choke the word, making it
unfruitful.
11
Others, like seed sown on good soil, hear the
word, accept it, and produce a crop-- thirty,
sixty or even a hundred times what was sown. He
said to them, "Do you bring in a lamp to put it
under a bowl or a bed? Instead, don't you put it
on its stand? For whatever is hidden is meant to
be disclosed, and whatever is
12
concealed is meant to be brought out into the
open. If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.
"Consider carefully what you hear," he continued.
"With the measure you use, it will be measured to
you-- and even more. Whoever has will be given
more whoever does not have, even what he has
will be taken from him."
