"As the weeds are collected and burned in the fire, so will it be at the end of the age." -Matthew 13:40
We gather our weeds on our property and haul them to the mulch pile, but Jesus tells His disciples in the parable of the weeds not to pull up the weeds growing amongst the wheat lest they uproot the wheat as well. Too often we become preoccupied with the "weeds" (which represent the sons of the evil one, according to Jesus). It is not our job to uproot evil, but rather to point the way to God through Jesus Christ. He will deal with the weeds at the appropriate time.
I am grateful for God's Word to help me understand He plan for this world.
