mustard seeds

Faith comes forth in the small things,
so trust in the seemingly insignificant moments.
Yes, you want your faith to grow, evolve and expand,
but don't discount it if it doesn't look flashy or sexy on the outside.
Don't dismiss it as 'not enough' if obvious markers
of radical faith aren't apparent to others.

This isn't about the others.
That's not selfish to say.
There's a humility in faith -- not seeking
to earn favor, respect or praise from people.
Know that God cheers when he sees the small moments --
the faith victories that no one else sees.
The world doesn't know what to do with that.
But you do.

Rest in his love, his presence, his peace.
Continue to seek that humble faith.
It may not win you accolades here and now,
but it's transforming your soul,
bearing gold in eternity.
