Seed does not become discouraged, or quit, even if other seeds die. A seed will stop growing without nourishment. Planting a seed is not enough to assure a harvest. Seed must be protected and taken care of until harvest time. A seed which is dug up, or not watered, will not produce.
More seeds planted produce a larger harvest.
Think on these truths about seeds. Allow the Holy Spirit to help you apply them to the role of God's Word in your life.
