The Sower: Jesus Teaches About Listening to God's Words |
| Jesus told lots of stories that had a deeper meaning. They are called 'parables'. This is one of parables that Jesus told about seeds. | |
| He said, "One day a farmer went out to sow seed on his land. There was a path where the neighbours took a short cut across the field, and the soil was worn hard and smooth. As soon as the seeds landed there, they bounced off and the birds swooped down and ate them up." |  |
"Other areas of the field had shallow soil because of the rocky ground. The seeds germinated and the plants grew up quickly, but the hot sun soon withered them because they couldn't take root." "Other seeds landed amongst weeds and thorns, which were so strong and tall that the little seedlings were completely choked." |
