small beginnings

Last night, I met with Jack, Sharon, and Mary. We talked about the ministry Mary will have after her baptism in November. As parents, Jack and Sharon will not get impatient with Mary if she's not fully engaged in her calling by say December. She's a baby!

The word of the Lord: "Does anyone dare despise this day of small beginnings?"

On Sunday, we'll be talking about mustard seeds...and mountains being tossed into the sea. Little things make a big difference, especially faith.

A seed of faith you can barely see activates the work of the Holy Spirit, which is immensely powerful. Think Pentecost Sunday.

We don't need more faith. We already have an awesome God beyond anything we could ask or even imagine. What we need most now is patience with each other, while we wait on the Holy Spirit to move in mighty ways.
