I'm only 5 feet tall and have always been small. My nickname in school
was "Short-T" and sometimes I feel like my faith can carry that
nickname. I can doubt more than I care to admit. Today's scripture talks
about this tiny mustard seed...some say that if you blink you will miss
it because it is so small. Yet, Jesus talks about the power of this
seed. Plant it and watch it push against the earth. The power of God in
this tiny seed is the same power in little ole' me and you! It doesn't
matter our size - it only matters that we believe in the size of our
God. He says, "Give it to me and watch me do something with it!" So
whatever that mountain is standing in front of you...give your little to
Him and watch Him do something.
This week's blog topic from Proverbs 31 OBS is on “Worry”… AND I know a thing or two about worry. I’m betting a lot of you reading this do as well. Dictionary.com defines worry as: “ to torment oneself with or suffer from disturbing thoughts; fret. ” Torment oneself. Suffer. Fret. That’s what I can do to myself sometimes. I’ve heard that if you worry you don’t really trust that God can handle it. You don’t trust God with it. That’s hard to swallow for me. Because I worry about my kids, my family, me, friends, etc. But I’m in the Bible every single day. I am a Jesus girl. So for me to worry and then see that my worry means I don’t trust that God can handle it is hard. UGH. I am getting better about it though. My time with God every morning is helping. When I start to worry about something…I begin to pray. I stop the tormenting in it...
