Feel Good Friday – Faith





Faith – “…the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” Hebrews 11:1

What does it mean to have the faith of a mustard seed? Just think of how tiny those mustard seeds are, smaller than a green pea. If we have just a small amount of faith, wonders can happen. The faith of a mustard seed is stronger than a mountain of doubt.
I hope you enjoy this poem about mustard seed faith and find it encouraging.

Faith of a Mustard Seed
by Karen Chalfant
Rise and go to Jesus
With your heavy laden heart,
And know that you don’t have to carry it
For mercy He will impart.

Let Him lift your burdens
As a bird lifts his wings in flight,
Knowing that He is faithful
To lift your soul to great heights.

Don’t let your troubles rule you
For all these things shall pass,
And greater things await
The greatest of which will last.

Find that mustard seed of faith
That lies within your heart,
And take it to your Savior
Whose faithfulness is only the start.


Have you ever encountered a situation that required you to lean on faith?

    Thanks for the reminder. Right now I'm going through something that's exercising my faith in God and belief that He will do what He says He will do.

    My mother used to say, "there's a blessing on the other side of 'Through'." Just when you think you can't take any more, things get better.

    Thanks for commenting.
