Weeds grow easily and thickly without care, but flowers like roses don't grow or blossom without diligent care. Our heart is the same. Rough hearts are like weeds such as hatred or anger. They easily take hold and can overrun a place. But, good hearts of love, joy and peace, like having roses, you need to try continually to get rid of the weeds of evil and sins. That is, when you become holy by continually cultivating your heart with the Word of God to get rid of the weeds, you can enjoy a prosperous life in which everything goes well and you are healthy.
"It is sanctified by means of the word of God and prayer" (1Timothy 4:5).
