I was recently asked the question: How do you keep score on yourself?
How many friends I have? How many things I can juggle on my own? My kids? My fitness? My happiness?
I want to keep score on myself like the parable of the seed that is sown in good soil, which grows, and takes root, and produces fruit- knowing that otherwise I am the seed that is spread among the thorns, being chocked by life's worries, riches and pleasures.
"the seed that landed on good soil, these are the ones who, after hearing the word, cling to it with an honest and good heart, and bear fruit with steadfast endurance." Luke 8:15
