What does the contrast between the small seed and huge bush teach you about the kingdom of God?
It teaches me that no matter how little we know about the kingdom of God, once it is planted we shall be saved.

The parable of the Mustard Seed
Mustard seed is smaller than all the seeds that are on the earth. At the same time, when it grow up, it will become greater than all the trees. The word of God is given by Jesus to a few people in the beginning. They were the disciples of Jesus. Now this word of God has spread all over the world like a big tree. The small seed here mention is about the word of God, and the huge bush is the group of people who are carrying the word of God ie. His disciples. In this passage it says that the birds of the sky can lodge under its shadow. Now many people can get peace and deliverance from the word of God and through the people of God.

the lesson is...
...that small seeds - `things` - when planted by God and `holyly` cultivated according to His Word bring to great things. In all things ex a few words exchanged between to people meant for Friendship can set the roots for deep mutual knowledge. And Friendship in the name of Jesus isn`t it the greatest lesson of all? growing together sheltering supporting each other with our branches branches of strong Christian trees. In God`s garden - in His Eden His Kingdom.

the parable of the mustard seed
small seed refers to humbleness, but if the seed grows up it refers to a wiseman like jesus, he humbled himself but with upright characters and we modeled him, as a christians we carry our sufferings in life but we are living in righteousness and happy life, he mentioned also one of his parables the first would be the last and the last would be the first and also happy are those who persecuted so they will inherit the kingdom of god, here on earth was so many obstacles in life but we make a solutions to solve it, that is the way of maturity as a christians.

The Parable of the Mustard Seed
The main point of this parable is that the kingdom of God seemingly had insignificant beginnings. It was introduced by the despised aand rejected Jesus and his 12 unimpressive disciples. But a day will come when its true greatness and power will be seen by all the world

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.
