Excerpt from Spiritual Considerations

Every time we hear the parable of the sower, it seems to strike our souls with a force and impressiveness quite its own. The illustration from nature is so perfectly clear: Our Lord Himself carefully explains His meaning; and thus its application to our souls is quite unmistakable.

We all know what it is to sow seeds. Each seed is the germ of a living plant: and our instinct is to value them for the sake of our future benefit and profit, knowing that if they are wasted, or devoured, or trodden under foot, or not used at proper time, the fruits will be lost beyond recovery.

It is further clear to us that the seeds depend entirely for their future development upon the ground into which they fall.
