As They Were Able


Mark 4:33 ESV
33 With many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it. 

If we are open we can receive and understand His words, if they don't stop at our ears but seep into the soil of the heart. There the seed of the good news can take root and grow. As the barren ground begins to transform, fruit appears, and God's pleasure prevails.

The words were too hard for some, and they turned away.

Yep. It's all about the ground. Those with good ground can hear and understand, thus accepting the seed. That seed grows produces a crop. One 30 time, one 60 times, and one 100 times.
