Answer from what the passage actually says — stay in the text.

1. What does this passage show me about God?

   • How does God make the plants, and what does he build into them so they keep coming back?

2. What does it show me about people — and about myself, my work and my land?

   • What does it say about the ground that God told it to bring out the plants? What is your soil for?

3. What will I obey this week, at home and on my land? (a concrete step, with a day)

   • What will you do this week to care for the soil or the seed so it can keep producing — and when?

4. Who will I tell?

   • Who could you thank God with, out loud, for the next planting or harvest?

3 Grow

Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).
