“You don’t have enough faith,” Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. For in Christ Jesus, nothing is impossible.”—Matthew 17: 20
I believe even when a pandemic has the world in lockdown.
I believe even when wildfires are raging in the west and hurricanes threaten the south.
I believe even when it seems there is no hope, because I have seen a mother and her child reunited.
I believe even when others do not, because I have seen the diseased and addicted change into beautiful, productive people.
I have truly seen faith, the size of a mustard seed, move mountains.
I believe even when the days are dark and the nights darker because the sun will rise again, and God isn’t finished moving mountains.
Creator God, you have formed the seas, the sky, and the mountains. You have known me before I took my first breath and have counted the very hairs of my head. You walk beside me even when I cannot believe, and you are the small seed waiting to be born anew. Create in us all, new hearts and minds this Advent season, for in You all things are possible. Amen.
