What does the contrast between the small seed and huge bush teach you about the kingdom of God?
The contrast between the small seed and the huge tree teaches me that although the Kingdom of God had humble beginnings in the birth of Jesus in a little known town of Bethlehem, Its end is glorious, because it will encompass the whole world-The kingdom of God will be preached to all in the universe, and of course, at the end of time, all the nations and peoples will be gathered together to see their Lord and saviour, glorified and full of glory, as the Judge of the whole world. He like the seed starts out lowly, but ends up all powerful and encompassing.

Do not underlook humble beginnings. Start small -grow big; The journey of a thousand kilometers starts with the first step. Those are imaginations in my mind about the small seed. That seed is incorruptible, that is why it will grow and not decay or perish. The growth is slow but sure, and there is no end in sight about its growth. However small this seed in you might be, like a monster, it will grow on and on, until it becomes a landmark tree, able to accommodate and support a diversity of life. My lesson is to appreciate that I have at least the word of God, however small. My firm hope is in it to become a spiritual giant one day for the Lord`s glory. Amen.

A seed grows and so can faith. Faith that is not used will not grow; but if it is used, it increases. By our faith and commitment, we can be more Christ-like and witness to others about the kingdom of God.

In this world, a lot of people does not seek the kingdom of God. They are so satisfied with their lives here, that they think that this is all there is to it. But what they fail to realize is that the kingdom of God is much, much more beautiful than this puny world that we all live in.

It teaches me that from one believer of Jesus spread the word of God to other and other and eventually the whole world know about the Kingdom of God. The harverst is huge in the end of the world.

This parable is pratically referred to Jesus Himself. Because before Him are many big prophets. He came and do more greater things even though He live a shortest life the greater things He did more than any of them. No wonder today, many uses His name as a refugee or to get something from God.

The Parable of the Mustard Seed

He said, "How will we liken the Kingdom of God? Or with what parable will we illustrate it? It's like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, though it is less than all the seeds that are on the earth, yet when it is sown, grows up, and becomes greater than all the herbs, and puts out great branches, so that the birds of the sky can lodge under its shadow."
With many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it. Without a parable he didn't speak to them; but privately to his own disciples he explained everything.
