The Parable of the Sower: Environment is Everything
About this episode
This is one of my favorite parables:
A sower went out to sow.And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them.
Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil, and immediately they sprang up, since they had no depth of soil, but when the sun rose they were scorched. And since they had no root, they withered away.
Other seeds fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them.
Other seeds fell on good soil and produced grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
He who has ears, let him hear.
- Matthew 13:3-9
This passage offers a powerful reflection on one truth:
Your environment creates your reality. Choose Wisely.
