He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of the heart  (1 Corinthians 4:5b).

Now for the other thing. 

You know, from yesterday.  The other thing about the wheat and the weeds.  So the one thing was that the roots of the wheat and the weeds can get tangled together, so that if you pull the weeds you might also pull up the good plants.

The other thing is that baby wheat plants and baby weeds can look alot alike to the untrained eye.  You may be pulling up a weedlike piece of flora that is, in fact, a healthy example of wheatiosity.  You can’t always tell.

You can’t…but he can.

God sees to the heart of the plant.  He knows its little chlorophyllian secrets.  He knows the mold that is hidden deep beneath the leaves.  He shines his spotlight on the roots to determine which are sunk deep into the rock and which are shifting in the sand.

But then, we’re not talking about plants anymore, are we?

Happy Thursday, Beloved.
