Call to Worship Psalms 23:1-6 10 10

Call to Worship （1/3） The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. 11 11

Even though I walk through the darkest valley, Call to Worship （2/3） Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint 12 12

Call to Worship （3/3） my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. 13 13

Scripture Reading Luke 8:4-15 35 35

Luke 8:4-15（1/8） 4 While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, he told this parable: 5 “A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path; it was trampled on, and the birds ate it up. 36 36

Luke 8:4-15（2/8） 6 Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the plants withered because they had no moisture. 7 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the plants. 37 37

9 His disciples asked him what this parable meant. Luke 8:4-15（3/8） 8 Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown.” When he said this, he called out, “Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.” 9 His disciples asked him what this parable meant. 38 38

11 “This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God. Luke 8:4-15（4/8） 10 He said, “The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables, so that, “‘though seeing, they may not see; though hearing, they may not understand.’[a] 11 “This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God. 39 39

Luke 8:4-15（5/8） 12 Those along the path are the ones who hear, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved. 40 40

Luke 8:4-15（6/8） 13 Those on the rocky ground are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away. 41 41

Luke 8:4-15（7/8） 14 The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life’s worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature. 42 42

Luke 8:4-15（8/8） 15 But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop. 43 43
