Wheat Or Weeds

I want to sow good seed
The fruit of my life with God
Walking on grass thick and green
Beautiful and excellent sod

I want to grow in the Lord
Seeing fields of golden wheat
Sun shining warmly on it
Kneeling in peace at His feet

I want to touch trees and flowers
Inhaling the sweet nectar of these
Petals and leaves lifted up to Him
My heart desires only to please

I want to nurture His perfect Word
Remembering when I was a weed
Unable to grow tangled in death
Cried out to God in my need

I want to reach to the sky
Growing to depths unknown
Golden wheat so pleasing to Him
The seed of His Word is sown

Matthew 13:24
