The Soil

    I have been reading a lot lately that our topsoil is not as rich as it was even twenty years ago because we have taken all the nutrients out of it and replaced it with chemical substitutes.  This means that our food supply is not as nutritious and has many chemicals in it. The soil has been depleted. 
    I was thinking about the spiritual soil of our hearts.  I was thinking that it is not tilled the same way that it was twenty years ago.  Church is not as important in this generation. God is not part of our schools or government entities as He was a generation ago.  Bible reading is not the same and understanding Bible truths has suffered. 
     It is so important to understand the concept of spiritual soil.  For example... you can't plant in sand what you can plant in rich fertile soil.  You just won't get the same result.
     So what can we do to prepare the soil of  our hearts? Fill it with the Word! Nothing replenishes our spiritual soil like a good healthy dose of the Word of God!
    Just read the Word and ask God to show you the deeper revelations within the book!  He will because He is faithful.
    Then prepare for a bountiful harvest of good spiritual food!
