We ARE Mustard Seeds To A Dying World

 

Robert Schaetzle

 
He said to them, “Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you.” Matthew 17:20 RSV

Do you ever consider who we are as ‘tiny mustard seeds?’ 

Our faith is on display, measured out and witnessed by many, to see and recognize all we are about each day. 

Our tasks, our temperament, our attitude, and how we react to situations as seen by a non-believing world is on stage, front and center.

We might be that ‘tiny speck’ of hope to a population of lost and despairing individuals. 

I recognize that yesterday is past, but today and the many tomorrows are still before me. 

We could be the only ‘speck’ that a lost or hurting soul can identify with as living evidence of God. 

The very promise that through Christ, people have moved mountains of fear and uncertainty through a tiny mustard seed of faith and hope, inspires.

There are many ‘someone’s’ searching for truth and we possess the incorruptible seed that is the Word of God within us. 

As we grow in and speak the truth in love, we become the light we are called to be to a lost and a dying world. 

Let’s plant God’s seed in Word and deed.

Father…what starts out as ‘little faith,’ through the power of your presence will one day grow strong with deep roots of everlasting love that will never become a shallow rooted seedling. Your Holy Spirit will water our individual seed of faith to become a fragrance to everlasting life. Because nothing is impossible with you! AMEN
