The Sower and the Soil — a 5-minute devotion for Ho Chi Minh City families
Mark 4:1-20 · Tending the soil, not just the seed
A farmer scattered seed on a path, on rocks, among thorns and on good soil. The same seed did four different things. Jesus said the difference was never the seed — it was the ground it landed on.
This works best in Ho Chi Minh City as a bedtime reading. Lights low, Mark 4:1-20 read slowly, the memory verse said twice, then the prayer. Younger children fall asleep on "tending the soil, not just the seed"; older ones usually want to argue about it first, which is fine.
Memory verse
“Still others, like seed sown on good soil, hear the word, accept it, and produce a crop.”Mark 4:20
Table question
What are the thorns that choke out quiet time in our week?
30-second prayer
God, pull up the thorns in our schedule. Make our house good soil. Amen.
Make it stick: on the way through Ho Chi Minh City tomorrow, one person says the first half of "Still others, like seed sown on good soil, hear the word, accept it, and produce a crop." and someone else finishes it. Three tries and it is memorised.
Tomorrow: the mustard seed (Mark 4:30-32). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
