Bible: Luke 8:12, 14; 20:18

8:12 Those along the path are the ones who have heard; then the devil 1  comes and takes away the word 2  from their hearts, so that they may not believe 3  and be saved. 8:14 As for the seed that 4  fell among thorns, these are the ones who hear, but 5  as they go on their way they are choked 6  by the worries and riches and pleasures of life, 7  and their fruit does not mature. 8 
20:18 For the Lord 1  had caused infertility to strike every woman 2  in the household of Abimelech because he took 3  Sarah, Abraham’s wife.
