Two short lists...

Two short lists caught my heart recently...

For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.
1 John 2:16-17

18 Still others, like seed sown among thorns, hear the word; 19 but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth and the desires for other things come in and choke the word, making it unfruitful. 20 Others, like seed sown on good soil, hear the word, accept it, and produce a crop—some thirty, some sixty, some a hundred times what was sown.”
Mark 4:18-20

They speak volumes about where a person's heart and mind takes them...where our desires lie...what the results are...

Whose will do we desire, how we react to the Word sown in our lives....

Two short lists...of opposing ramifications ...choices...make all the difference...

Thank YOU...for your Word...
Help me examine my life...and where my heart finds life...and let it be pleasing to You...
