Mat 13:31 Another parable He put forth to them, saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field,
\nMat 13:32 “which indeed is the least of all the seeds; but when it is grown it is greater than the herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches.”<\/p>\n
In this parable Jesus taught the value of little things. In the beginning, the kingdom of God was like a tiny little seed. When Jesus started preaching, only a few people heard and believed him. Some people rejected him, jeered him, doubted him but with time , the Kingdom has grown big.<\/p>\n
The tiny little seed has the capacity to grow and become a big tree. It becomes big enough that the birds of the air go there and seek protection among it’s branches. Something almost invisible eventually has a big impact. By the power of the Holy Spirit, from that tiny seed, the church has grown and spread to every country in the world.<\/p>\n
Our lives are filled with little things and it’s very easy to despise, overlook and ignore them. In God’s hands, the little things can have big results. ” The “little” hustle, Education, salary, plot etc can propel us to great heights. Every king was once a small baby!<\/p>\n
