Today's Scripture selection is Matthew 13:24-30:
The Parable of the Wheat and the Tares
24 Another parable He put forth to them, saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field; 25 but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. 26 But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared. 27 So the servants of the owner came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?’ 28 He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ The servants said to him, ‘Do you want us then to go and gather them up?’ 29 But he said, ‘No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, “First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.

The moral lesson of the Wheat and Tares Parable is, God is not in a hurry, and we must be prepared to trust Him and wait for His time.
In the end, God will win and good will overcome evil.

The Parable of the Wheat and Tares also teaches us that there will be a day of judgement for those who are enemies of God's kingdom and that some people will be punished for rejecting Christ.

In due time, God will separate good from evil. Amen.
In the meantime, God's people/kingdom people, let your light shine.
Light exposes darkness so shine bright and not only expose those who are in the kingdom of darkness, but also, do what you can to bring them into the kingdom of light.
Be soul-winners! Amen.
