Wheat & Tares

The Prayer of the Day:

Faithful God, most merciful judge, you care for your children with firmness and compassion. By your
Spirit nurture us who live in your kingdom, that we may be rooted in the way of your Son, Jesus Christ,
our Savior and Lord.

Amen


Worship Insight:

It is an age-old question: Why is there evil in the world? In the parable of the wheat and the weeds, Jesus suggests that both grow together until the harvest. With Paul, we long for the day when all creation will be set free from bondage and suffering. Having both weeds and wheat within us, we humbly place our hope in the promises of God, and from the Lord’s table we go forth to bear the fruit of justice and mercy.
