Truth exists in forms that cannot be contradicted. It requires clear thinking, articulation, synthesis and correlation which may not be obvious ,in some situations, to casual observers of life. One basic assumption is to always question everything, even this very statement. However, there is no room for infinite regress. At some point, you need an anchor that cannot be contradicted by any other precept you will build upon. For me, the basis is God.

Give Me Jesus
In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise, give me Jesus
Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus,
You can have all this world,
But give me Jesus
When I am alone
When I am alone
When I am alone, give me Jesus
Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus,
You can have all this world,
But give me Jesus
When I come to die
When I come to die
When I come to die, give me Jesus
Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus,
You can have all this world,

The Comfort Zone
Oh my soul, rest a while
for you have made a pile
who better deserves a spoil
than you, after years of toil
Let loose all reins
live unfettered, open in the rains
glow and glitter
like the sparkles of a thousand gems
Like a snowflake in a bright ray
I dazzle and allure every casual onlooker
but it dawned on me by mid-day
that I am thawing, and shortly will be gone from here
At my best, I might peak
My safest comfort zone, time will melt
I need redemption, eternal that is never bleak
At last, to rejoice and my soul to be at rest
John Donne said," Death thou shall die"
But Christ said, "I am the way"
Will you pray to God through Jesus Christ today ?
So that in hell you will not lie

Mark 4:26-29
I need to lay out a couple of things as premise that I sincerely hope will be helpful in the understanding of this scripture.
Please read every scripture -from the Holy Bible - I cited for context not just the specific verse I mentioned.
I pray to my God who is able to do exceedingly , abundantly , above that we can ask or think to fill you with the fullness of the understanding of his mystery to His glory. Amen.
Gen 2:7
A human being is a composition of
--> 1. body- to relate with nature , feelings and observations
--> 2. spirit - the form of God that can relate with God
But the body is animated by the spirit and we have a bridge called -mind or soul which has emotions {from body feelings}, reasoning {observation distilled into abstract forms i.e experience = facts + decisions}.
Jesus' parables regarding seeds almost always referred to the word of God that the body will pass through to the spirit - through the use of hearing (Romans 10:17), reading(2 Timothy 2:14).
The spirit is transformed (John 3:3-8) by the power {Greek is dunamis} in the word IF not filtered by the mind (Romans 12:1-2). So salvation is not automatic but guaranteed to whoever will believe the word !
The harvest is the effective working power (Ephesian 3) that transforms the spirit to be born-again (John 3:3-8 ; 2 Corinthians 5:17)...BUT the body will now need to be ruled by the spirit unlike before that experience feeds the spirit- For the just shall live by faith.(See also Romans 6:12-13 -- Emphasis on DO NOT LET...)
Now my understanding of the parable in Mark 4:26-29
3 things he(Jesus) highlighted,
Seed grows, yields and harvested - without the knowledge of the man !
--> The word permeates the mind,
transforms the mind's reasoning ,sometimes slowly i.e one thing at a time - subconsciously- he does not know how
and leads to decision of salvation (harvest).
Luke 10:2 - The harvest is plentiful but few laborers ...
John 4:35-37 ;
