A Tiny Mustard Seed
Hebrews 11:8 The Voice
By faith Abraham heard God’s call to travel to a place he would one day
receive as an inheritance; and he obeyed, not knowing where God’s call
would take him.
People often think about faith as this huge, ethereal concept that they
can’t quite grasp. The Bible talks about faith in the terms of a mustard
seed which is quite tiny.
I think this Scripture clearly shows the unfolding of faith. One step of
faith and Abraham heard God’s voice – something that is extremely easy to
do, but so many people don’t realize that.
Hearing God’s voice, caused the mustard seed of faith to grow, enabling him
to leave home – on a journey to somewhere. Abraham didn’t know where God
was leading him. Continual communication with God caused continual growth
from the once tiny mustard seed.
Abraham was known as the father of faith – all because he acted on a tiny
mustard seed and allowed God to produce the growth.
Father, I will take the mustard seed of faith that you have given to me and
step forward. I will listen and hear Your voice. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
