Parable
A sower was spreading seeds on to a field. Some fell on the path, and the birds ate it up. Some fell on rocky ground, where they first of all sprouted, but were scorched when the sun came up. Others fell among thorn bushes, which choked the plants and they didn't produce any corn. But some fell on good soil, and grew - some had thirty grains, some sixty, some a hundred!
"Listen, then, if you have ears!"

Rocky ground - The message does not last long, due to persecution the person gives up
Thorn bushes - Worries of life such as riches and and desire choke the message, and they don't bear fruit
Good soil - They hear the message, accept it and bear fruit.
