The Parable of the Wheat and Weeds can be found in Matthew 13:24-30; 36-43. In this parable the seeds of wheat are sown by the farmer and the enemy comes at night to sow seeds of weeds. The weeds are not immediately removed from among the wheat for fear that some wheat will also be removed with the weeds. Instead, at harvest time, wheat and weeds are separated. We learn from Jesus that while he sows good seeds for us to grow and flourish in this life and the next, the enemy is busy sowing weeds among us so that we become entangled with the unrighteous ways of the world. All of us will face temptation during our lifetime and if we become consumed with it, we will be consumed by it. We need to learn discernment and how to separate ourselves from the bad of this world. When it grows side by side with us or surrounds us, it will be hard for us to know what is good and bad. When people see you do they see wheat or weed? Are you so entangled that even you do not know the difference? Good news! We can turn to the word of God and the holy spirit for guidance in this world. Start the process of un-entanglement and make your way through redemption and salvation. You deserve to have joy and everlasting life.
