"He replied, "Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, 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
A man came to Jesus asking him to cast out the demon that's been possessing his son. He said that none of the disciples were able to cast the demon out. After Jesus had healed the boy, the disciples asked him why they were not able to do it themselves. Jesus replied with verse 20. I feel like a lot of my failures have been attributed to what Jesus told his disciples. I ask God "Why do I feel like I haven't done enough for my youth group? Why am I not able to feel Your presence today? Why do I constantly fail You over and over again?" Jesus says it's because of my lack of faith. I strongly believe that faith and trust go hand in hand. If you have faith, you trust God that He will make all things possible. There are so many opportunities out there for me to speak out about the Truth and the Gospel, but I always fear for the rejection. If only had a faith as small as a mustard seed..
