Jesus said, " The man who received the seed in rich soil is the man who hears the word and understands it :he is the one who yields harvest and produces now a hundredfold"
Mark 13:23

The heart and the mind of each and every child of the Father were given to receive that which will prosper and rain, develop and mature. And according to the readiness of each to receive . so will that which he will receive from the Father be prospered and matured.

A constant watch is needed to remove all that hinders growth, and a willingness to eradicate all that hinders and harms, Humility with courage and, above all, commitment to receive and give love - these are basic essentials for receiving the word of the Kingdom.

And as the ground of the heart and mind is prepared in faith and hope and love so does the Incarnate Word of the Father come to take up His abode in the centre of being of that child of the Father. And from that centre He tends and prunes , encourages, strengthens and feeds, so that growth and maturity progress both the soul of that faithful child of the Father and ministers beyond Him in the community and field of his life and work.

Purify and enrich the soil of your heart and mind, then, that the seed may have abundant life.
