While Men Slept
What follows is a message regard-ing our world and the condi-tions therein, as well as a forecast of what lies ahead. I quote from an impec-cable source: St. Matthew 13: 24-30.
“Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.”
Fellow citizens: Wake up! An enemy is in our midst. But do not despair. A plan to thwart him, a plan imperceptible to human eyes and ears, is magnificently unfolding. That plan is in capable hands, and it is on track and on schedule.
Nevertheless, while we wait for the day of the harvest to arrive, if there is something you can do to help alleviate even a small portion of the fear, anxiety and suffering that currently abound in our world, among our fellowmen, please make yourself useful.
And then be content to leave the rest in God’s hands.
