What “rocks” in your life keep preventing your faith from flourishing?

The rocky soil represents the heart of a person who hears the word, and receives it with joy, yet has no secure root to grow and blossom. The word is forgotten when affliction or conflict arises in the life of the individual. This person only seeks the benefits that they can acquire from Jesus, but beneath the surface, their heart is unyielding with rebellion and resistance to the word of God.
