Luke 13: 18-19 (NIVUK)

18 Then Jesus asked, ‘What is the kingdom of God like? What shall I compare it to? 19 It is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his garden. It grew and became a tree, and the birds perched in its branches.’

Everything starts from nothing. Every journey, no matter how long and how far, starts with a single step. Every achievement begins with a single idea or a single flash of inspiration.

Everything beautiful around us once started from a single molecule, perfect and ever changing in form to become… Perfect and never changing in form but seen in different forms by every living eye.

God is the God of possibility, the God of first steps, new growth and new life where before there was none.

That’s the thing about God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit. It's change and it’s growth. It’s from the seed to the tree to the guitar to the song. A song can change the world around it… from a seed.

Miracles happen daily, we just need to open our eyes and our ears and there they are!

 

Prayer:

 

Lord, let me see the miracle in me.

The path I tread to lead me to you

All the possibilities to what I might become

Ever changing, guided by your love, nothing wasted, not even the wrong turnings and the things we call mistakes.

There are no mistakes, only learning forgiveness and a new me,

Make me the me you want me to be, make me grow from seed to song and all the steps on that journey

Selah.
