Hey there!

It's Erica Allen here, and I'm excited to share a little insight from our recent sermon discussion. We delved into the idea that our limited expectations cannot be placed on God's unlimited character, and let me tell you, it was a revelation.

Picture this: You've got this tiny seed, barely visible, right in the palm of your hand. It's like faith, isn't it? Sometimes it feels so small, almost insignificant in the grand scheme of things. But guess what? That tiny seed, when planted in faith, has the potential to grow into something incredible. It's like the mustard seed Jesus talks about, so small yet capable of moving mountains.

We explored the story of Abraham and Sarah, a couple longing for a child. Can you imagine the patience they must have had? Decades passed, and still, no sign of the promised offspring. But God had a plan, far greater than they could have ever imagined. He took Abraham outside and showed him the stars, promising that his descendants would be as numerous as those twinkling lights. That's the kind of God we serve, a God who sees beyond our limitations and works miracles in ways we can't comprehend.

So, what does this mean for us? It means we need to trust. Trust that God is at work, even when we can't see it. It means planting seeds of faith in every aspect of our lives, whether it's in our relationships, our careers, or our dreams. It means believing that God's promises are true, even when circumstances seem bleak.

I don't know about you, but that's some pretty powerful stuff. So, let's embrace the journey of faith together. Let's sow those seeds with confidence, knowing that God is faithful to bring about a harvest in His perfect timing. And who knows? Maybe one day, we'll look back and see that those tiny seeds of faith were the beginnings of something extraordinary.

Until next time, keep trusting, keep believing, and keep planting those seeds of faith.

With love, Erica
