Matthew 17:20 - Jesus replied, "Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."
Ya know how things can be so quiet in your life, and then, all of a sudden, all sorts of things start to happen? It's kind of how seeds are. If you planted 'em, you know they're down there in the dirt, but it can take a while before you see anything happen. And then, all of a sudden, well, as Jesus puts it in today's Bible verse, mountains start moving and nothing seems impossible. All from a little, mustard-seed-sized faith.
Today's Saturday. I believe that God's going to do some awesome things this weekend in the hearts of all who rest in Him and worship Him this weekend. And let's all believe that our seed-planting labors from this past week will also have a mountain-sized impact soon. All that's required is taking some time in worship to look back on and smile at your good ol' hard work, and a little mustard-seed-sized faith in the promises of Jesus to do mighty things through the things we did to both bring glory to him and also his blessings to others.
Praise God!
