The Parable of the Weeds

Matthew13: 24-30
       A man sowed good seed in his field. One night when everyone was asleep,an enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away. When the plants grew and the heads of grain began to form, then the weeds showed up. The man's servants came to him and said, "Sir, it was good seed you sowed in your field; where did the weeds come from? "It was some enemy who did this,' he answered, "Do you want us to go and pull up the weeds?' they asked him, "No," he answered, 'because as you gather the weeds you might pull up some of the wheat along with them. Let the wheat along with them. Let the wheat and the weeds both grow together until harvest. Then I will tell the harvest workers to pull up the weeds first, tie them in bundles and burn them, and then to gather in the wheat and put in my barn."
Reflection:
        Evil works results to evil fruits. A certain punishment awaits those who have planted evilness all through their lives.Success may be in their hands right now, but time will let them experience the same things.Revenge will come in due time, especially  those who have experienced deceit and sufferings. On the other side, good people awaits rewards without recognition. A true and noble person can really experienced a different kind of lightness in their hearts as they live in accordance to God's purpose and will.
