The Bible is full of good stories. Some are historical stories, from the lives of the Jewish people. Others are fiction stories that have lessons. Here is a fiction story that has a lesson in it. What are some possible meanings of the story?

A farmer went out to plant his seed. He scattered the seed on the ground. Some fell on a path. People walked on it, and the birds of the air ate it up. Some seed fell on rocky places. When it grew, the plants dried up because they had no water. Other seed fell among thorns. The thorns grew up with it and crowded out the plants. Still other seed fell on good soil. It grew up and produced a crop 100 times more than the farmer planted. Luke 8:5-8
