Matthew 16:26 "What good will it be for a man if he gains the
whole world, yet forfeits his soul?" NIV
Morning Glories are beautiful flowers, they come in many vibrant colors. They take root almost anywhere and grow with intensity. Many times they overpower other plants and choke the life right out of them. A lady I knew was learning about gardening and she had worked very hard at preparing her rows for planting. However, she adored the beautiful Morning Glories and thought it would be nice to have them growing in her garden. So,she spread seeds among the others. It wasn't long after the garden began to grow that the Morning Glories started growing too, at a much faster rate than the other plants. They began wrapping their vines tightly around everything in their path wreaking havoc on the garden. The other plants barely grew and the ones that did weren't nearly as fruitful as they should have been. They had been choked by the vines of the Morning Glories. Though the lady tried to get rid of the vines it was of no use, they just kept growing and her crop was a failure. This reminds me of life. How often do we strive for things and then wind up being let down? Sometimes things can be alluring yet dangerous. Have you ever been tied up and choked out by what was once beautiful?
