Wheat and tares sown together - a lesson on judging


This week we study Jesus' second parable of sowing seeds. Again the sower broadcasts the good seed, and this time the wheat and weeds grow up together. Should we weed the field so the good plants can grow? They become entangled. Is this about judging others? What can we learn about judging others? Is this about the good and bad in all of us? 

Consider Christopher Burkett's "Tangled Humanity," and reflect on Sister Kym Harris'  "This Sunday's Exposition."

Brothers and sisters,  Life is short, so be quick to love and make haste to be kind
to gladden the hearts of those who go the journey with us." ~Henri Frédéric Amiel
