	Are You Growing Seedlings or Weedlings?
	Posted By: kiwibird Are You Growing Seedlings or Weedlings? I went into the garden this morning With tools in my hand for the task Of clearing the weeds from the carrots A job that was quite a big ask I'd been waiting to get the right weather Not hot and not cold but just right And while I was busy just waiting The weeds seemed to grow overnight As I bent to the task in my garden My spiritual ear heard a voice "Are you growing both seedlings and weedlings Because you know there is always a choice?" As I carried on weeding the garden With my ear finely tuned to my Lord God reminded me of his great manual Where his plans for my whole life are stored It distinguishes weedlings from seedlings And shows me a much better way Of resisting the weedlings and growing the seedlings So they're strong at the end of the day God reminded me seedlings need water And food so the veggies can grow By neglecting to dig out the weedlings The seedlings have hardly a show Some weedlings they seem very pretty But the end result's always the same They take over and kill all the veggies And there's just no-one else I can blame I need in my life as a gardener To be diligent and to be wise So that when I have worked in my garden The results that I eat are my prize The moral of this little story My friends really is plain to see If I choose to ignore all those weedlings They quite easily grow to be trees To chop down a tree and destroy it Is harder and takes much more time Than letting God into my garden To clear out those weedlings of mine permalink Posted: 01/03/2009 08:15pm - Total Views: 171 - Category: Poems View: Backlinks Similar Blog Entries: Growing, Growing in Christ, Why Do Some Churches Have Problems Growing, Growing in Grace, Growing up as a misionary kid in South africa,
