I got this dirt hill I need moved (not even a mountain really)and I really don't want to spend the time or money renting an excavator....I heard faith the size of a mustard seed could do the job for free....
Yes, the smallest of all seeds. Wait, what? Oh I see. Thank you. This just in ... the mustard seed is not the smallest of all seeds. Another scientific error I guess.
It will, you can grow a mustard plant, make mustard, sell it, and buy a shovel.
That would be a good task for your local church. Have them stand around the pile of dirt and pray the dirt away. Just make sure you have shovels ready for when the prayers fail.
you will be sad to know that its an expression. It means if you had just a little tiny bit of faith, God can do wonderful things through you. Jesus was not telling his disciples that they would gain magical powers if they had a mustard seed. If I told you that I had butterflies in my stomach, would you assume I had been out eating bugs? The reason he used the mustard seed as an example is because its the tiniest seed they had around, and yet, the variety of wild mustard seed that grew in that area got to be 12 feet high. This is how much your faith can grow if you nurture it. (not literally, faith can not be measured in feet.)
