Mark 4:26-29

26Jesus also said, “The Kingdom of God is like a farmer who scatters seed on the ground.

27Night and day, while he’s asleep or awake, the seed sprouts and grows, but he does not understand how it happens.

28The earth produces the crops on its own. First a leaf blade pushes through, then the heads of wheat are formed, and finally the grain ripens.

29And as soon as the grain is ready, the farmer comes and harvests it with a sickle, for the harvest time has come.”
