30 And he said, “With what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable shall we use for it? 31 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when sown on the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth, 32 yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes larger than all the garden plants and puts out large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its shade.” ~ Mark 4:30–32
The kingdom of God is like a mustard seed. What is so special about a mustard seed, you ask? Well, let’s analyze what Jesus was teaching. Jesus wasn’t saying you just need a little bit of faith, but rather, He was saying you need a little of seed-like faith that can grow into great faith. I can have a little faith but never see anything happen because my faith is limited to my own biases. But if I remove my biases, then my faith has room to grow.
We need to have seed-like faith that can be planted and let it grow into something big. For instance, if you have the spirit of fear, your seed can’t grow because you’ll be too afraid to leave your comfort zone. So, it’s not just any old little type of faith; it’s seed-like faith. It’s faith with potential. It is a mustard seed faith.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Have Seed-Like Faith.
