Noxious Weeds Versus Budding Flowers

Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. Isaiah 5:20


In a state park near me there is a sign that tells visitors what the noxious(bad) weeds are and shows a picture and asks that hikers please pick them and throw them away as they take over everything. Much better to have blooming flowers.


Sin is like a noxious weed even though some of these ‘weeds’ may appear harmless if not dealt with they take over. Pretty much everyone knows what is right and wrong due to that little voice (Holy Spirit) reminding you or bringing conviction but then there are those who have practiced sin so much they can’t recognize the evil one such as those whose hearts are so hard they think the killing of babies in the womb is okay. Some where there are callous hearts who think these babies are only molecules. That is what a pro choice protestor shouting down pro life people at this year’s March for Life in the nation’s Capitol told me and then said I was stupid. I left her alone and reminded her Jesus loved her. Many have bought into the lies of the culture and they may know deep down what is good but continue to practice sin and vote for evil to continue. Some do it only for sheer hatred of our present President nothing more and have believed the lies of those ‘expert media’ who also hold disdain for him. The resistance. Unbelievable. 


So in order to keep your flowers blooming for Jesus keep in the word. Turn off the TV more. Pray for those souls deceived by what they are hearing is right in this modern culture. Love people and let God and the Holy Spirit deal with them. Some may be even friends and family who have justified sin so much they don’t think anything of it. 


PRAYER: Oh Lord I am so thankful my eyes were opened to wrong versus right and that many are deceived. Help me not shove Jesus down their throats and be mean like many of them are but to love and to pray. Keep me calm in the midst of cultural wars. In  Jesus’ name. Amen.
