WHEAT YOUR GARDEN
The Lord doesn't weed His garden (Mt 13:29). Therefore, if you're wheat, you must suffer being intertwined with a lot of weeds (see Mt 13:29). The Lord does things this way to give the weeds the opportunity to turn into wheat. However, the very opposite can occur. The wheat can become like weeds and lose their new life in Christ (2 Pt 1:10; 1 Cor 9:27).
Thus, wheat must be concerned about converting weeds and not being perverted by them. Conversion and perversion are related. If we do the work of conversion, we will not be perverted. However, if we ignore our responsibility to offer conversion, we are in great danger of becoming perverted. If we don't share our faith, we may lose our faith. Evangelization is a matter of life or death — not only for the weeds but also for the wheat.
For God's sake, for weeds' sake, for your own sake, love a weed enough to tell him that Jesus loves him enough to die for him. Wheat your garden.
