Your heart need to be like healthy soil so you can follow Jesus!

Key Points:

  • The first soil wasn’t soft enough, so birds came and ate all the seeds. Matthew 13:3-8
  • The second soil wasn’t deep enough, so the plants had no roots.
  • The third soil was full of weeds, so they killed the plants.
  • The fourth soil was just right and produced a lot of crops.

Memory Verse:

Matthew 13:8 Still other seeds fell on fertile soil, and they produced a crop that was thirty, sixty, and even a hundred times as much as had been planted!
