God’s Word is a seed that grows in the honest heart

Luke 8:11, 14-15

Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection. But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
