How To Be (Part II) "The Ground Work"

One of the more popular parables Jesus ever told was the parable of the Sower. Ultimately it's a lesson about what it takes to "bear fruit" in your life. It doesn't start by examining the the fruit itself, or even the tree. It starts with the seed hitting the ground. There are different types of ground that the seed falls on and only one kind ultimately can produce fruit. That type of good ground in our lives doesn't come by accident. Before we can experience spiritual growth and ultimately produce fruit, we must lay the ground work.
