FERTILE GROUND

3/6/2018

Picture
I remember as a young Christian sitting in a Church service and my pastor preaching a message on Matthew 13 about the sower who went forth sowing seeds.  When he sowed, some seed fell by the way side, and the birds came and devoured them up:  Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: the plants sprang up quickly, but they soon wilted  beneath the hot sun and died because the roots had no nourishment in the shallow ground.  Other seeds fell among the thorns that shot up and choked out the tender blades.  But some seed fell on fertile ground and produced a crop that was thirty, sixty, and even a hundred times as much that was planted.  

I remember that preacher saying that day, "you are that ground, you get to choose, which ground are you going to be?*  I thought to myself, well that's a no brainier,  I want to be the fertile ground.  So I prayed that day, Lord if I get to choose, then make me the fertile ground.  Lord use me to make a difference everywhere I go.  I want to produce fruit for your kingdom.  So I have been living my life for the last 22 plus years trying to make a difference in the life of others. 

 I get the chance everyday to pray for someone who is out there on the road.  I hear from people everyday who pick up our CD'S out on the road and it has impacted and changed their lives.  Many are being saved and many are being blessed by our CD ministry and are joining with us to make a difference in the life of someone they know. 

I encourage you to read Matthew Chapter 13 today and then you get to choose which ground are you going to be from this day forward.  It really is that simple!  As my Pastor Russ Beadles use to say!  *What are you going to do with this man called Jesus that lives in your heart!*  The choice is up to you today!  Choose to be that fertile ground and join with us here at Lonesome Road Ministries.  Many of you have already joined with us and are passing the CD'S on to others in your area.  These CD'S are for you to be a blessing to OTHERS!

    I ​logged over 4 million miles as a truck driver from 1972 - 2007 and I have written a lot of it in my songs. God has taken me off the road and put me into full time ministry, but I still have a heart for all you drivers out there.
