Word 248 of 310Trust

If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree: Be uprooted and planted in the sea, and it will obey you.

Luke 17:6

BSB

Read Luke 17 in a modern translation BSB
Read the whole chapter (Luke 17)

A little faith

The disciples asked: increase our faith. They had just heard that they should forgive someone seven times a day. That seemed impossible.

Jesus didn't answer with more. He said: faith as small as a mustard seed is enough. It isn't about the amount of faith, but about whom you trust. A little real trust does more than a mountain of certainty.

Question for today

Do I dare to start with a small faith?

Prayer

Lord, my faith is small. Thank you that it isn't about its size, but about you. Amen.
