"The farmer's job is to sow the seed, to give it regular water and cultivation, and then leave it alone. God takes care of the rest of the process.
We aren't expected to watch ourselves, constantly checking ourselves to see if we are producing fruit. Our part is to sow the seed. And remember what the seed represents-- it is the Word of God. We study God's Word for ourselves, we accept Him into our lives day by day, and then we let Him do His work. We may not understand how He does it, but this doesn't matter. What's important is that we understand how to do the work assigned to us."
from "Parables of the Kingdom" by Morris Venden pg. 40
