“Jar of Mustard Seeds”

A mustard seed is small, they say, A whisper in the wind, Yet mountains move and giants fall When faith ignites within.

But what if faith is more than one, A harvest rich and wide? A jar so full it overflows, No room for doubt inside.

I hold this jar with steady hands, Its promise shining bright, Not just a seed, but fields of hope, A future bathed in light.

And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
– Matthew 17:20

And they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. Thus saith the LORD, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The LORD of hosts is his name:
– Jeremiah 31:34-35

“Written on the Heart“
No need for whispers, no need for cries, For knowledge of God will fill the skies. From the least to the great, they’ll know His name, A love unshaken, forever the same.
No more remembrance of failures past, His mercy endures, His grace holds fast. The weight of sin shall fade, shall cease, Replaced by endless, boundless peace.
The sun He sets, the moon He steers, The roaring waves, He calms, He hears. By His command, the stars take flight, A covenant sealed in Heaven’s light.

As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me. Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.
– Psalms 55:16-17

“No matter the time of day, morning, noon, or night, God hears me. In the quiet moments, in my cries for strength, His presence is unwavering. This verse reminds me that prayer is not just a ritual; it is a lifeline, a source of salvation. As I call upon Him, I am reminded that He saves, He listens, He responds.” It reminds us that justice isn’t always immediate, but God hears our cries.

The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. –

But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in his presence.
-1 Corinthians 1:27-29

And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.
– 1 John 5:14-15

“Strength in Kneeling”
With weary knees, I knelt to pray,
Through whispered words, the doubts gave way.
The weight I carried, heavy and worn,
Was met with grace at every dawn.
Each prayer, a bridge, each tear, a light,
Through silent storms, through endless night.
The ground below became my stone,
A place where strength was gently sewn.
So now I rise, no fear, no doubt,
For faith within has found its route.
The knees that bent now stand so tall,
By prayer, by love, I rise through all.

Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart: So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.
– Proverbs 3:3-4

Wisdom and gentle strength. Mercy and truth are meant to be woven into our lives, not just as passing thoughts but as deep, unwavering principles that shape our hearts. When they are bound close, they guide us in favor and understanding, both with God and with those around us.

For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
– Romans 1:26-27

The consequences of turning away from God. The passage describes how people, rejecting God’s truth, were given over to “vile affections “engaging in behaviors that go against His intended design. Specifically, it mentions women and men abandoning natural relationships for unnatural ones, emphasizing the moral and spiritual consequences of such actions. Humanity’s tendency to reject God, leading to various forms of sin. Paul uses this example to illustrate how distancing oneself from God results in distorted desires and behaviors.

For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
– 1 John 2:16-17

Temporary nature of worldly desires, such as physical cravings, materialism, and arrogance, and contrasts them with the eternal value of following God’s will. The verse warns against being consumed by earthly temptations, reminding believers that these things do not come from God but from the world, which will eventually fade away. However, those who live according to God’s will are promised eternal life.

Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.-
– Proverbs 31:10-12

Have a nice day! 🙂

A virtuous woman is truly rare and immensely valuable. She is trustworthy, bringing a sense of security and confidence to her husband. Her unwavering goodness and integrity ensure she consistently acts in ways that benefit her family and household. This paints a beautiful picture of a woman whose character and actions bring strength and stability to her home. She is worth far more than material wealth, and her impact is deeply profound. The passage highlights qualities such as trustworthiness, wisdom, and steadfast goodness, showing how she nurtures and protects her loved ones. Her value lies not just in her actions but in the heart and integrity she carries. She fears the Lord, holding reverence, trust, and obedience toward Him. Her strength, wisdom, and kindness stem from her faith, and she lives in a way that reflects God’s love and righteousness. Instead of relying on outward beauty or material success, she is celebrated for her godly character and faithfulness, making her a blessing to her family and community.
