The mustard seed Faith
If you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, “May you be uprooted and thrown into the sea,” and it would obey you! Luke 17:6
The Lord asks us to have faith. Faith in His promises. Faith in His Son Jesus Christ. Faith in the hope of the resurrection of Christ. Faith in everything He has set forth in His Word.
He asks us to "believe without doubting, to ask without stopping, to seek until we find, to knock because the door will be opened, and to pray without ceasing, believing that what we ask for, seek for, knock for, and pray for He will do something about."
But God also realizes that sometimes it’s tough to believe. Sometimes we feel like Thomas, asking for physical proof of Jesus’ resurrection. Sometimes we want to get our finite brains around an infinite God and understand things without having to do it on faith alone.
Christ doesn’t call us to understand it all, to see all of God’s plan for His Kingdom and our role in it. Instead, He wants us to have just enough faith in Him to continue to follow Him day by day on the path He has set before us. Step out in faith today. Be blessed.
