Sower Scatters Seed Widely

Open in the reader →

1Jesus said, "Behold, the sower went out; he filled his hand and cast seed. Some indeed fell on the path; the birds came and gathered them. Others fell on the rock, and they did not cast root down to the ground, and they did not send ears of grain up to the sky. And others fell on the thorns; they gathered them, choked the seed, and the worm ate them. And others fell on the good ground, and it gave good fruit up to the sky: it yielded sixty measures and one hundred twenty measures."
