In a distant land, a sower went out to sow his seeds. As he walked, some seeds fell by the wayside, others on rocky ground, some among thorns, and finally some on good soil. Those that fell by the wayside were eaten by birds, those that fell on rocky ground withered for lack of roots, and those that fell among thorns were suffocated. But those that fell on good soil grew and produced an abundant harvest. This parable teaches us about the importance of cultivating a receptive heart so that the divine message can flourish in our lives, bringing fruits of love and kindness.
