‭‭Luke‬ ‭8:11‭-‬15‬ ‭NLT‬‬
[11] “This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is God’s word. [12] The seeds that fell on the footpath represent those who hear the message, only to have the devil come and take it away from their hearts and prevent them from believing and being saved. [13] The seeds on the rocky soil represent those who hear the message and receive it with joy. But since they don’t have deep roots, they believe for a while, then they fall away when they face temptation. [14] The seeds that fell among the thorns represent those who hear the message, but all too quickly the message is crowded out by the cares and riches and pleasures of this life. And so they never grow into maturity. [15] And the seeds that fell on the good soil represent honest, good-hearted people who hear God’s word, cling to it, and patiently produce a huge harvest.

‭‭Luke‬ ‭8:1‭-‬3‬ ‭NLT‬‬
[1] Soon afterward Jesus began a tour of the nearby towns and villages, preaching and announcing the Good News about the Kingdom of God. He took his twelve disciples with him, [2] along with some women who had been cured of evil spirits and diseases. Among them were Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons; [3] Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod’s business manager; Susanna; and many others who were contributing from their own resources to support Jesus and his disciples.

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:24‭-‬27‬ ‭NLT‬‬
[24] “Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. [25] Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock. [26] But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand. [27] When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash.”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭127:1‭-‬5‬ ‭NLT‬‬
[1] Unless the Lord builds a house, the work of the builders is wasted. Unless the Lord protects a city, guarding it with sentries will do no good. [2] It is useless for you to work so hard from early morning until late at night, anxiously working for food to eat; for God gives rest to his loved ones. [3] Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him. [4] Children born to a young man are like arrows in a warrior’s hands. [5] How joyful is the man whose quiver is full of them! He will not be put to shame when he confronts his accusers at the city gates.

‭‭Nahum‬ ‭1:3‬ ‭NLT‬‬
[3] The Lord is slow to get angry, but his power is great, and he never lets the guilty go unpunished. He displays his power in the whirlwind and the storm. The billowing clouds are the dust beneath his feet.

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭128:1‭-‬6‬ ‭NLT‬‬
[1] How joyful are those who fear the Lord— all who follow his ways! [2] You will enjoy the fruit of your labor. How joyful and prosperous you will be! [3] Your wife will be like a fruitful grapevine, flourishing within your home. Your children will be like vigorous young olive trees as they sit around your table. [4] That is the Lord’s blessing for those who fear him. [5] May the Lord continually bless you from Zion. May you see Jerusalem prosper as long as you live. [6] May you live to enjoy your grandchildren. May Israel have peace!
