Seasons--Planting
Mark 4:3-8 “Listen! Behold, a sower went out to sow. 4 And it happened, as he sowed, that
some seed fell by the wayside; and the birds of the air came and
devoured it. 5 Some fell on stony ground, where it did not have much earth;
and immediately it sprang up because it had no depth of earth. 6 But
when the sun was up it was scorched, and because it had no root it withered
away. 7 And some seed fell among thorns; and the thorns grew
up and choked it, and it yielded no crop. 8 But
other seed fell on good ground and yielded a crop that sprang up,
increased and produced: some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some a hundred.”
