Mustard Seed

Christian Today

"He told them another parable: "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. Though it is the smallest of all your seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and perch in its branches."

-Matthew 13:31-32

Jesus told us that the Kingdom of Heaven will rise up out of something that is so small - as small as a mustard seed.

So even the smallest of things that we are able to do, or however few we, with faith, are now; it is from this tiny seed that we plant that God can make His glorious Kingdom arise from.
