Seed-Sized Faith
Jun 11, 2013
By Coach Debbie
“I tell you the truth, 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.” Matthew 12:20
“If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.” Luke 17:6
What is your “mountain” in life right now? Finances? Your boss? Materialism? Defiant kids? A crumbling marriage?
Are you trying to “fix” it yourself, in your own strength? Is it working?
Have you ever done one of those team-building “trust falls” where you stand on something like a tree stump with your back to a bunch of people who are waiting to catch you? You fold your arms, lean back, and believe they won’t let you land on the ground. It’s scary.
God wants our hearts. He has great plans to give you a hope and a future, not to harm you. He wants our eyes not on our “mountain” but on HIM. He is all-powerful and mighty to save. All he asks is for us to have faith the size of a mustard seed.
A mustard seed is teeny tiny and it’s alive and growing. Just like our faith. Alive and growing. Almost invisible at first, but it becomes more obvious over time. It changes because of its surroundings. Just like our faith…tested and stretched and we become mightier for the Kingdom.
Can you surrender your woes 100% ? It’s a tall order. You must be humble. You must be willing. It’s a process of relying on The Creator HOURLY.
“Dear Lord, I have my grad school exam on the horizon. I trust you to help me through it.”
“God, my husband and I fight like crazy. Will you please conform me to Your image?
“Heavenly Father, was my kid switched at birth at the hospital?! I’m loyal to you and ask that you strengthen me and help us to love.”
Every day’s challenges are like those “trust falls.” The good news is, The Guy who catches you has nothing but love for you.
