Faith of a mustard seed………


Faith of a mustard seed………

 

Jesus said if we have faith of a mustard seed size we can move a mountain from its place and command it to fall into the sea. Does this mean we should have faith as small as a mustard seed? I remember of a story of two friends who were travelling to their village. To reach their village they had to cross over a mountain. The friends thought of the words spoken by Jesus and decided to pray that entire day, with faith, for the mountain to be moved. After the end of the prayer-filled day, they saw that the mountain was still standing in its place without moving an inch. Then one of them said, "I knew in the very beginning that the mountain would not move. It would have been better for us to cross over the mountain that to waste an entire day praying." The other friend said, "May be in the days of Jesus a mustard seed was as big as a mountain." Friends, if we observe a mustard seed we see that there is no hole or empty space inside the seed. It is complete. God wants our faith to be complete and perfect without any doubt in it. Let us have a faith that pleases God so that we may receive from Him whatever we ask.
