"And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it? It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth: But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it."- Mark 4:30-32
When Jesus first began teaching the gospel and showing them His wonderful works people were in awe and knew that He was the Messiah, yet there were many, including some disciples that lacked in their faith. In Mark Chapter 4 Jesus explains to His disciples that there are several levels of faith, and that faith grew in all who had even the tiniest amount as long as they nurtured it with the right soil. So, how does our faith grow? It grows first by accepting Jesus as our Lord and Saviour, after all He is the only way to reach the kingdom of God, also by staying in His Word, by talking with Him and walking with Him.
A wonderful thing begins to happen as your faith grows in Jesus, you feel His presence with you and no matter what you are going through you are at peace knowing that He will get you through it. I remember the times when I did not walk with Jesus, I was so lost and depressed and simply exsited as if I were a zombie. God knew that I was hurting, He let me fall as much as I could handle and then He picked me up and showed me what I was doing wrong. Sometimes it is not easy to let the Lord guide me as this crazy flesh wants to take control of situations, however once I come to my senses and let Him know that I can not handle it on my own I am at peace once again.
The same thing will happen to you, as long as you have the tiniest bit of faith Jesus will work in your heart and that faith will keep growing and growing and growing. What a great feeling to know that Jesus is always with you and has so much faith in you that He knows you will succeed.
