The Parable of the Sower teaches us how to grow in the self-awareness necessary to be close to God and others.
The parables of Jesus show that he understands you, can help you understand yourself, and help you understand God.
We can use these psalms as a guide for ourselves when we need to find the courage to come into the light and grow.
Our heart condition affects our relationship with God a lot. If we don’t understand ourselves, we will misunderstand God.
