How to Move a Mountain with a Mustard Seed

Do you bemoan your lack of faith? Are you trying to muster it up but find yourself still full of doubts?

Life brings mountainous challenges that can feel too difficult to climb. Whether it's a troubled marriage, an illness, or a financial difficulty, you can become overwhelmed and feel powerless.. 

Faith is not the absence of doubt. Instead, imagine the faith you think you need, and take 5% of that. It is all I require. That tiny “mustard seed” of faith can grow into something magnificent. It is what moves mountains (Matthew 17:20). Faith is not about size but sincerity.

Even the smallest seed of faith can grow into something magnificent. Every step, no matter how small, is a step toward moving that mountain. Your tiny faith is powerful enough to change the world.

 "…If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you" (Matthew 17:20).

Please leave a comment below on your experience with faith or doubt.

With love beyond measure,

Break Free: From Caterpillar Soup to Rainbow Wings

Have you ever felt as if your life had become liquified, messy, utterly unrecognizable. It's when disaster feels like too polite a word. When everything you thought you knew dissolves into a thick, swirling dread. But even in that swirling, soupy chaos, something miraculous is happening. Renewal isn't just on the way; it's already at work. And I am there, right in the thick of it, stirring the pot.

The righteous man may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all (Psalm 34:19). Note, it says ALL. It's not just a nice sentiment; it's a promise I keep.

Think about the butterfly; that incredible, impossible transformation. It’s a perfect picture of what I do. The caterpillar doesn't just sprout wings; it goes through a radical, almost violent, breakdown. It actually becomes a liquified worm. But within that “caterpillar soup,” there are a few remaining particles, core pieces that refuse to be destroyed. These particles become wings, eyes, and antennae. And that's the truth about you too. No matter how devastating your circumstances, the essence of who you are—the core of you—the part of you that is one with My Holy Spirit—is indestructible. "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new" (2 Corinthians 5:17).
