The Parable of the Sower Part 3 (Stronger Together)

There is often more than what meets the eye when it comes to our spiritual lives and inner world. Resistance, discouragement, and shaken confidence are often evaluated as indicators of how we may be mishandling our faith journey. We may be quick to compare ourselves to the exuberant expressions of seemingly confident believers, however the temperature of our spiritual lives cannot be simply reduced to external appearances. Doubt, despair, and faith crises are ubiquitously normal in the life of the believer and it is through these moments that sharing our struggles with brothers and sisters encourages us to finish the race, fight the good fight together, and once again see the heart of the Father.
