Oh wow, such a spirit-led writing, woke up from awesome sleep at 5:40 with this scripture on the brain and God had wrote most of this in my head in between dreams… He had processed more meaning for me than I already had from this scripture, my ears open more and more to HIS sweet music. I wiped the sand from my eyes and blurry eyed found my phone…. Fast 30 minutes… Plus a little for editing and finding the scripture references that were already placed in my heart… Oh, how awesome I see now that this grain and weeds parable is immediately after the four soils one…. God’s linear progression today, my discombobulated ways… I am so grateful… And I still have sand in my eyes but my ears were open all night listening for God’s whisper… Here’s the piece, may it please God…
God Wants YOU in HIS Bouquet in Heaven, 08Jul
I’d like to take the wonderful opportunity to say thank you to God for placing such certain people in my path. I have and had so many wonderful people to learn from, pull the best characteristics from each one into my bouquet of life…. Blessedly more amazing people, than terrible people… But I learn from those folks as well… Learn to delineate the good from the bad traits within each person (because we all have both), the roses from the thorns, the grain from the weeds.
Matthew 13:29 “‘No,’ he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.’”
When God choose me, and when God choose you, he let all the seeds grow, grain and weeds alike… good grain people and weed people/temptations (planted by the evil one). When it is time to harvest, the weeds be set aside and burnt… And the best in you will be taken into the barn of God… into HIS eternal kingdom!!! Yes, you see God let’s those bad habits grow like weeds alongside your best grain characteristics. He dare not pull the weeds that intercolated into your being, entangled all around you, because the grain of who you are is/was not yet mature, is/was not yet firmly rooted in good soil.
When you are mature enough, which does not depend on your age, God will call you louder by name… God will lead you to Jesus… maybe others will cajole Him to come into your house and raise your life spirit like Jarius’ daughter (Luke 8:41-56)… Maybe you will cry out in painful screams of angst… When God says it’s time to wake up, you sometimes snooze thru the alarm, then angrily realize you weren’t ready to get up but God called you anyway. When you wake up earlier than the alarms, it’s refreshing and peaceful to see God coming for you, and you can be ready and waiting for HIM. You can work on your root growth deeper and obey his Word.
Before harvest God says: “it’s time to get right with the Lord…. It’s time to start pulling those weeds within you, so hold on tight to your roots planted in ME…” God’s harvest of the good in your crop will become easier and less painful if you cooperate with God and not work against him, if you identify and start eliminating the weeds in your life… If you dig deep and get to the roots of these vice-causing traits and clean out your soul.
It’s ok if you can’t get out all the weeds or invasive roots out before God takes you, it’s ok because God knows any harvest, no matter how small is still pleasing (Matthew 13:23). God will take you as you are. Be grateful and let God bless you with HIS joy.
God sees the Jesus within you, and takes you for HIS bouquet of heaven. God loves you and will keep you forever…
