Desire, Faith and Action in the parable of the sower



There was an ambitious sower who sowed a seed. A seed could be our dream,ambition, sense of purpose, vision, great opportunity and financial freedom. The seed landed on different kind of soil.
The 1st seed landed on the pathway and the birds took it away. The bird signifies FEAR. Fear will took away our faith and believed towards greatness. Sometimes our desire to pursue vanish because of that fear which control our life. So the seed never grow because the bird took some of it. The fear took some of our faith and believed in our self. We never grow. But the sower keeps on sowing!

The 2nd seed landed on the rocky soil. Somehow it grows but eventually it withers and died. What happened here? Its obvious that sometimes we believed in our self that causes us to act. We are confident that we could do this job. We showed effort, interest, tenacity and excitement.We suddenly stop! We lack the sense of focus, vision and desire to pursue that's why we withers and begin to feel indifferent about the opportunity. The seed again never grows as the root begins to hit the rocks. But the sower keeps on sowing!

The 3rd seed landed on the thorny ground.The soil is great. The seed is great. It grows but somehow the thorns keep the plant from growing and it withers again and died. It's the same for us! Somehow we have the desire, we know exactly what to do. We are confident that this thing is going to be easy. But the primary issue is doing it! The number one issue for us is procrastination. We tend to delay, postponed and even neglect the most important things. Idea without action is always a delusion. The seed or opportunity dies again. But the sower keeps on sowing!

The 4th seed landed on the great soil. It was bird free,  stone free  and thorn free  The place was excellent. The seed finally grow to its maximum potential and bear fruit. The sower reaps its bountiful harvest and enjoy the fruits of his labor. Successful people are the people who maintain the principle of the pyramid. Desire, Faith and Action are there. If we have a white hot DESIRE to be successful definitely it feeds the FAITH inside of us. The more we believed in our self. Faith is the fuel that takes away the friction out of life. Our faith again feeds us to take ACTION. It's very easy to act when we know we have the faith and believed that we can do this things. Action also feeds our desire. That's what makes it a white hot desire! The more we do the things in harmony with our thoughts the more our desire to pursue grow! It make sense right? :)

I would like to share a Bible passage that will help you release your wisdom!

Better a man who hides his folly than who hides his wisdom.
Sirach 20:30
