And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.
But some seeds landed in really good soil, and wow, they totally took off. They grew and multiplied like crazy, producing thirty times what was planted, some sixty times, and some even a hundred times more.
When your heart is ready, God's word doesn't just grow, it absolutely flourishes.
