I devoured the description of the seed and the truth found in the Word of God. I knew a precise amount of seed had been designated for my life and I didn’t want to loose any productivity. We have been given a measure of faith and I knew that the seed could produce at least …

Another day, another lesson 15
The cares of life which had chocked out my life would be vigilantly deposed. I was never going to go through a battle like that more than once I thought. Yeah right… I had seen all three aspects of the parable of the sower first hand and failed miserably at each one. Boy, what a mess I had …

The Breakthrough 14
In the instant of that conflict, I lost to the most loving God. My heart had been won and all that was in me cried out to come back to the only true love I’d ever felt. In the stillness of the moment an entire little church waited patiently for a wayward son to come to …

The collapse 13
At that moment, all the resources of Heaven were being invested to capture a wild heart! Inside that little church in Texas a fight had been staged and all the players had arrived. Again the dark forces had come to see if their work had been effective enough to disqualify this man from being in …

The Event 12
The room filled with church members and the normal service began. Humph, nothing was happening. Maybe God didn’t care after all. Maybe He chickened out. Well, I felt I might as well sit through the remainder of the service and then go home. In the middle of that thought all Heaven began to respond to …

The Event 11
I was worn thin by the continuing pursuit of the Spirit. He had more determination to woo me back than I had to stay away. After months of evading I thought I’d at least darken the door of a church again just to see what might happen. I was taking a chance by challenging God on …

Becoming good soil 10
I walked out and didn’t look back. I figured that was it. God was a weakling and not at all what I’d hoped for. Over the next few months I was dogged by the Holy Spirit. He refused to allow me to walk away. Do you know how impossible it is to turn off the …

Becoming good soil 9
I continued to press into the word, searching like a starving person looking for a morsel of bread or meat. I needed an answer! It came without me seeing it but through an event. I was trusting God to save me from a continuing fiery trial in my life. It was so difficult that just getting up …

Rightly dividing the word of truth part 8
I found my answer! In Luke 8:4-15 Jesus was teaching about a farmer planting seeds. It seemed that life could strangle the seeds from growing and being fruitful. I understood what that felt like! I knew what the birds, rocky soil, and thorns were in my life, but the good soil evaded my understanding. How could I …

The question. Part 7
What did I do wrong? Have you ever asked God that question? I knew something had changed but I couldn’t understand why. I spent many hours out in the woods seeking the answer. God was good during that time and I continued to blossom in my Sunday school class under some wonderful people. A year …
