To Good To Pass Up

Matthew Chapter 13 is a series of parables spoken by Jesus that I will probably just spend a little time on for a couple of reasons, first of all it's good for me. Sorry folks, but I will probably spend some time where I am being benefited.
While I was teaching in the jail last Sunday chapter 13 was the main portion of what I was teaching on and even though my personal reading has gone on beyond this chapter I want to sit down and write out the things that stir me within.
Verses 1 - 8 are the verses that Jesus speaks first telling the parable with out any explanation. Verses 18 - 23 is where Jesus makes clear what the meaning of the parable is. I do encourage you, the anonymous reader, to take your bible and read those sections first. I will continue along these lines the next time I write because I want share with you what stirred my heart.

P.S.
By the way as I am writing these posts I will be using both the Old and the New Testaments because that is the only way I have been able to stay ballenced in my understanding of the Word of God.
