Apostle Francis Reign
It is just amazing what growth can produce in people. Babies look alike - they're all cute, sweet, adorable and promising.
We are all blessed with babies. We sing sing and smile at them because they look so innocent and pure.
We see all of them as destined for greatness. Then growth comes in and reveals all their hidden flaws. Growth is like a microscope.
When it is focused on seemingly orderly and fine objects, we discover images that contradict the first impressive images of what we saw. Every drunk on the sidewalk used to be a beautiful baby with promise. The prisons are full of people who used to be sweet little bundles of joy to older people. The violent gang leader used to be a nice sweet little child. So what happened to them? Well, let me tell you what happened. _"They grew up."_ Growth revealed the children's own sinfulness as well as the values and lessons imparted to them by the society they learnt from. Growth amplified the little character flaws we all took for granted.
When flaws are not dealt with early in life, they become lifelong habits that work to our disadvantage as we grow. In the parable of the wheat and tares, Jesus Christ illustrated this principle that although the wheat and tares looked alike in the beginning, growth would reveal their true fruits. Fruits reveal true nature.
