"Jesus asked, 'How can I describe the Kingdom of God? What story shall I use to illustrate it?' It is like a tiny mustard seed! Though this is one of the smallest of seeds, yet it grows to become one of the largest of plants, with long branches where birds can build their nests and be sheltered."

~ Mark 4:30 - 32 LAB

Bible Commentary:  "Jesus used this parable to explain that although Christianity had very small beginnings, it would grow into a worldwide community of believers. When we feel alone in our stand for Christ, we need to realize that God is building a worldwide kingdom. He has faithful followers in every part of the world, and our faith no matter how small can be with that of others to accomplish great things."
