Weed and wheat grow together.

This morning as I was plucking out the bad weeds from around the plants of the garden. We have two tomato plants, and I little annoyed by the weeds thinking, ''Can you believe this weed that no one planted it? It's suffocating the tomatoes.''
This reminded me Jesus' parable of the owner of a large field:
“The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’
“An enemy did this,’ he replied.
“The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’
“No,’ he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.”(Matthew 13:27-30)
There are situations, or even people that come in to our life's. They are like weeds, no one invited them but they just showed up to create difficulties in our life, and you might say; where did this issue come from, how did this happen?
God says; bless those that harm you, love them, pray for them, It's necessary that the weeds and the wheat grow together until the harvest.
We are called to have the heart and mind of Christ who forgave us and loved us beyond knowledge, and He who is the just judge will deal with that circumstance or person.
Don't be discouraged, but even better regain strength and peace, because if only you would know the great purpose that God has for you, you will later understand that it was necessary in order to produce in you the abundance of fruit that you are called to have.
He want's to strengthen your faith, His plans for you are to see you blessed in order to bless others.
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." (Romans 8:28)
Prayer: Father I pray to have the mind and heart of Jesus so I can be compassionate and merciful according to your purpose, in Jesus name I pray.
