Every farmer wants to plant good seed, but in this Parable of the Weeds, Jesus explained that during the night an enemy came and threw weed seed on the newly planted field, so soon the weeds were coming up with the wheat. Now my dad was very proud of his clean fields, so this would have probably driven him crazy! To that end, as children, we joined him in walking the corn & bean fields…much to our dismay. Therefore, many a Summer morning we would start out first thing after breakfast…wet corn or beans slapping our legs as we moved down the rows pulling weeds…all three of us girls complaining all the way. But dad was undeterred by all our griping and soon his fields were picture perfect.
