Patterned after the Savior's style of teaching, this parable is an insight into the law of sowing and reaping. For those who struggle, it is a how-to for overcoming addiction, as well as media overload - two problems prevalent in society today. The weeds in this parable may also serve as a metaphor for stumbling blocks in life. Feelings like envy, pride, jealousy, bitterness, hatred, or fear may grow and eventually saturate one's life if he is not careful.
