Sometimes, the tiniest things make the greatest impact, and the author Frank DeCotis has compelled everyone to think about it. Although Jesus has taught us a parable that I believe is relevant for us today, one of them is the mustard seed faith. He said His Kingdom is like a grain of mustard seed, a mere and smallest of seeds sown in the garden. It is buried. No one notices it. It seems so insignificant. But Jesus said the seed springs up and grows to become the greatest among herbs!
Why Having Faith As Small As A Mustard Seed Is A Must?
The smallest, tiniest things have just become great. It grows so much that the tiny seed becomes a tree where the birds of the air come to nest. Okay, what’s the relevance for us today? The birds of the air represent all the unbelievers of the various nations coming to rest in God’s Kingdom. Why? Because of the tiny, insignificant, unnoticed mustard seed that the farmer (Our Father) planted right where He knew it would blossom and be productive. That a mustard seed of faith is you and me.
Frank’s Bike Path Wisdom Book is all about highlighting the importance of sticking to faith in the time of adversity. Having faith even as small as a mustard seed lets people stay firm when their life is going through a rough patch. As Frank DeCotis life was upside down when he lost his son to an accident, he found peace in faith, and he wants everyone to stay strong and have faith.
Have Faith As Small As A Mustard Seed To Make An Impact
We live in a time of mega-ministries, million-dollar budgets and buildings, with crowds that can’t possibly know each other. Could it be that we all get caught up trying to do the “big and noticeable thing” rather than the seemingly small yet incredibly great and productive thing that Jesus has called us all to? Faith as small as a mustard seed creates a great impact. Remember, smaller steps can lead you to the path of destiny.
Have Faith Like A Mustard Seed And Grow It Into A Tree
Jesus has you right where He wants you. If he wants anything different, He knows how to get your attention. You are not insignificant to Him or unnoticed by Him. You have a small mustard seed faith that you have planted to bless and impact those around you. One must understand the power of faith like a mustard seed and grow it into a tree o that people can sit in its shade and birds can nestle in its branches.
In The End…
As you grow your faith like a mustard seed into something significant, others will see Jesus in and through your life. They will find their place in the Kingdom because you bloomed where you were planted. We are not under pressure to change the world. We just need to be His light in the “little world” where He has us.
You are the true ministers of Christ. You are the ones He has chosen to bring forth His Kingdom. Yes, you, the one others may consider “the least,” are really the greatest in His eyes. A tiny mustard seed faith in you will one day let you stand so tall. Be blessed.
