Today's Daily Word: April 27, 2006

In the parable of the sower, Jesus taught about the creative power and the abundant return for the one who sows seed in a fertile field of good soil.

My thoughts are seed ideas that I sow in the fertile soil of my mind. When my mind is open and uncluttered, I am creative in my responses to life and in all my interactions with others.

To clear my mind and prepare it to receive, I spend time in meditation and prayer. Here I release preconceived notions and attachments that things have to go one way. Instead, I let an awareness of God grow within me so that an abundance of creative thoughts develop and mature into reality in my life.

“Other seed fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no grain. Other seed fell into good soil and brought forth grain, growing up and increasing and yielding thirty and sixty and a hundredfold.”—Mark 4:7-8
