As for the part in the rich soil, this is people with a noble and generous heart who have heard the word and take it to themselves and yield a harvest through their perseverance.
Lk.8:15
Jesus explains the parable of the sower. Of the four types of people Jesus describes only one type bears fruit from the word of God, those with noble and generous hearts.
Noble and generous. These speak of a virtuous character into which Jesus is clearly calling us.
Maybe each time I am tempted to sin, I could ask myself, "Is this noble or generous?" My answer determines the type of soil I am.
Jesus, help me rich soil with a noble and generous heart today.
Saint Padre Pio, please pray for me.
