Through the Parable of the Sower in Matthew 13, we see that even Jesus experienced varied responses to his teaching. Some rejected him outright, some believed briefly then fell away, some were choked by worldly concerns, and some produced an incredible harvest. The Pharisees plotted to kill him after hearing his words. Crowds believed momentarily then picked up stones against him. The rich young ruler walked away sad, unable to let go of his wealth. Yet the disciples dropped their nets immediately and rivers of living water flowed from them. Our job isn't to make seeds grow—that's God's work. We're called to plant and water, to be co-workers with God in his field. One small seed can produce a harvest that spans generations and continents, creating a legacy of faith we cannot begin to count.
