The Faithful Beautiful Mustard Seed

After all the mustard plants were harvested  I saved this sprig of one of our Mustard Plants . I watched my daddy save some Mustard seeds  last year (2010) and actually this Mustard was grown from his saved seed from that year.

I stripped the plant

Then crumbled the dried pods till the seeds fell out.

Did the Best I could,will continue to blow off the dried pods, 
I managed this amount for next years planting :)
I kept looking at the Beautiful dried plant , Grabbed a Bow and made this little Arrangement.
Everytime I look at it I am reminded
"If I have Faith even as small as a Mustard Seed All Things are Possible"
O how much that Prayer means to Me these Days!!

As a grain of mustard-seed - See the notes at Matthew 13:31-32. The mustard-seed was the smallest of all seeds. It has been supposed by some, therefore, that JESUS meant to say, If you have the smallest or feeblest faith that is genuine, you can do all things. The mustard-seed produced the largest of all herbs. It has been supposed by others, therefore, to mean, If you have increasing, expanding, enlarged faith, growing and strengthening from small beginnings, you can perform the most difficult undertaking. There is a principle of vitality in the grain of seed stretching forward to great results, which illustrates the nature of faith. Your faith should be like that. This is probably the true meaning.
Ye shall say unto this mountain ... - Probably he pointed to a mountain near, to assure them that if they had such faith they might accomplish the most difficult undertakings - things that at first would appear impossible.     You can find this info here at this link for more Study.    http://bible.cc/matthew/17-20.htm
