Preoccupied Heart Online

Preoccupied Hearts ~This passage describes the case of people whose hearts resemble soil infested with roots and runners of thorns. Such “dirty” soil is a serious threat to the growth of any desirable plant. Similarly, hearts filled with worry concerning the workaday world, beclouded by dreams about riches, and (Mark adds) the desire for other things, thwart any influence for good that might otherwise proceed from the entrance of the kingdom message.
