He kept is so simple, all you had to do was see where you were in it. *Scripture:* *Matthew 13:1-9* 1 That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat beside the sea. 2 And great crowds gathered about him, so that he got into a boat and sat there; and the whole crowd stood on the beach. 3 And he told them many things in parables, saying: "A sower went out to sow. 4 And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them. 5 Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they had not much soil, and immediately they sprang up, since they had no depth of soil, 6 but when the sun rose they were scorched; and since they had no root they withered away. 7 Other seeds fell upon thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them. 8 Other seeds fell on good soil and brought forth grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty. 9 He who has ears, let him hear." Ed you live this parable, in that you talk about Dabo. Some folks her it and think it's great but never do anything with it. Others download it and install it but don't come back. Others use it, ask questions and interact with others because of it and share it with others. Ed your not God!
