The Character of Christ - UNDISCOURAGED

Read Mark 4:13-20.

"The sower sows the word." (v. 14)

Jesus knew that as He gave out the word of God, some would respond, and some would not. He was not discouraged that some of His efforts would never bear fruit. He continued acting obediently.
I need to remember that not all my efforts will be fruitful because I cannot control the hearts of other people. And I am called to sow the word out of obedience. May I be obedient.
