Amos 9:13
Amos 9:13
Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when the plowman shall overtake the reaper.
This parable invites us to exercise patience, knowing that both good and bad will grow together until the proper time for judgment. In this verse, the growth of both weeds and wheat is allowed to continue until the harvest, at which time the weeds will be gathered and discarded. This illustrates the patience required in life—whether in personal growth or weight loss—where we must allow time for the good and bad to reveal themselves. The process may be slow, and we may encounter setbacks or challenges, but God promises that in due time, everything will be sorted out. Let this verse inspire us to remain patient in our health journeys, trusting that God will handle the results. We are called to focus on the good seeds in our lives, cultivating health, discipline, and righteousness, while God takes care of the weeds, removing them at the right time. Through this, we find peace in His control.
Matthew 13:38
The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the people of the kingdom.
Hosea 10:12
Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the Lord, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.
Matthew 15:13
Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by the roots.
Genesis 3:18
You will eat the plants of the field.
