#91 SOWER

JESUS

#91  SOWER  "On that day Jesus went out of the house, and was sitting by the sea.  And great multitudes gathered to Him, so that He got into a boat and sat down, and the whole multitude was standing on the beach.  And He spoke many things to them in parables, saying, "Behold, the SOWER went out to sow...Matthew 13:1-4

"All these things Jesus said to the crowds in parables; indeed, He said nothing to them without a parable.  This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet:  "I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter what has been hidden since the foundation of the world."  Then He left the crowds and went in to the house.  And His disciples came to Him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field."  He answered "The ONE WHO SOWS the good seed is the Son of Man."  Matthew 13:34-37

 Jesus, You are the SOWER!  You are the One who sets things in motion, who causes to exist, who scatters the seed of the truths about the Kingdom of Heaven!  You spoke to the crowds in parables, simple stories that taught spiritual truths.  You called Yourself the SOWER - the One who sowed the field with the Word and with truth.  Your use of parables fulfilled the prophesy in Psalm 78:1-4 and in Isaiah 6:9-10!  You used them to reveal mysteries to Your disciples - that only they would understand.  The people who didn't believe in You, didn't understand the stories You told.  Jesus, You are the SOWER - the One who reveals truth about the Kingdom of Heaven! Jesus, give me a heart like the disciples - who longed to know the TRUTH You were teaching!    I worship You Jesus, the One who reveals TRUTH - the SOWER!!

(Do you long to the know the truths Jesus taught?  Worship Him as the SOWER!)#100dayswithjesus
