Luke 8:13-15

Goodspeed(i) 13 The ones on the rock are those who receive the message joyfully when they first hear it, but it takes no real root. They believe for a little while, and then in the time of trial they draw back. 14 And what falls among the thorns means those who listen and pass on, and the worries and wealth and pleasures of life stifle them and they yield nothing. 15 But the seed in the good soil means those who listen to the message and keep it in good, true hearts, and yield unfailingly.
