Let them both grow until the harvest

The question arises from today’s evangelism: Am I a weed or am I wheat?

Of course, few people would consider themselves weeds. Yet we all have the potential to stunt the growth of those around us by being negative about them, putting them down, or preventing them from thriving. We too all have the potential to be wheat, to grow into someone who gives life to others and has a home where God waits for them.

We may both have seeds in us, but we can help either of those seeds thrive by relating to those around us. Today let’s think about how we can give life in God’s field.
