As for that in the good soil, they are those who, hearing the word, hold it fast in an honest and good heart, and bear fruit with patience.
(Luke 8:15 ESV)
In v. 14, Jesus explains that the seed that falls among the thorns is choked out when those who receive "go on their way" They don't change direction or implement change, they try to take Jesus with them on their own way.
I will also piggyback with Laura's thinking as I noted that the good soil bears fruit with patience. That is something I struggle with for certain.
I also struggle with how to live life. My life is busy--as demonstrated by the fact that I started this post 4 hours ago and am just now getting back to it. Keeping Christ as the central figure in that is tough.
