The soil best represents me is the seed in thorns. I know the truth but I am attracted to the worldly pursuits.

I have been cut down time and time again by God to bring me back to follow his way.

I now, do not seek wealth or power but I am not constant in my efforts to follow God.   

Jesus was a Jewish male who was part of the community into which he was born.

Jesus after 30yrs as a Jewish citizen declared that "The mission reason for His birth was to up grade the dialogue of God and mankind and to do this He disclosed "how we should live our lives and what we can expect when we die".

The clear focus should always be love and the we should love God and our neighbours. This was not understood 2000yrs ago and is still not fully accepted by all. 

The words of Jesus give us the ways to receive this good news.
