What time of year is best to plant seeds? The answer depends on what seeds is the sower wanting to plant. As a truth sower, I scatter seeds of the Word of God, and the best time of year to do that is anytime, and anywhere. The truth will fall on different types of soil. The soil represents the condition of a person’s heart. Their receptiveness to God’s message is not my concern. The Holy Spirit does the tilling, obediently I simply plant the seed.

❤️ The Seed represents the Word of God spoken.
❤️ The Sower is the one sharing hope in God.
❤️ The Soils represent the  the hardness or softness of the human heart listening.

🌹The Path represents those who hear the Word but do not understand it. The enemy snatches away what was sown in their heart. Matthew 13:19

🌹Rocky Ground represents those who receive the Word with joy but have no deep root. When trouble or persecution arises, they quickly fall away. Matthew 13:20-21

🌹Thorny Ground represents those who hear the Word but are choked by the cares of the world. They become unfruitful because they allow fear to spoil fruit. Matthew 13:22

🌹Good Soil represents those who hear and understand the Word, producing a crop of good fruit—some even a hundred times what was sown. Matthew 13:23

The receptiveness of a human heart is where we lean on God. We simply obey and toss seeds. Just as soil needs nutrients to produce good fruit, hearts need to surrender, to be teachable, and to be encouraged with prayer, and community. The sower thrives as their confidence in the Spirit is that He will finish His job.
The responsibility to capture every thought is the up to the sowers. Actively work to remove unbelief, doubts, and distractions (the thorns and rocky parts) leads to a more fruitful life as a follower of Christ. The “soil of the heart” is a profound teaching on how we receive, respond, and live out God’s Word. Seek God with a pure heart that has been tilled and filled by the Holy Spirit. Tis the best good soil that produces a harvest.
