Faith.

I was looking for a spice today in my cupboard when I came across some mustard seeds.  Tiny tiny tiny little things... and I remembered the scripture in Matthew when Jesus used a mustard seed parable to provide a picture of faith.

“I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, 

you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. 

Nothing would be impossible.”

(Matthew 17:20)

Most of us have probably heard the old example about having faith in a chair.  Saying that you trust the chair to support you while you sit is nothing more than words until that faith is exercised.  It's when you actually sit and rest in it that faith is proven.

I was just thinking that as we journey through life, we can see faith do the same things that seeds do.  They grow into something much bigger than when they started and our faith, or trust in God, will grow as well as we witness the amazing things He does in our lives. 

Hope your Tuesday is going great.  

I had a great visit with a close friend, 

a skype date with my Sister, 

have finished my laundry that was WAY overdue, 

and now I have a coffee in hand ready to finish out the day... 

and let's not forget about the Parenthood season finale tonight.  

Anybody else having a great day?
