The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field; and this is smaller than all other seeds, but when it is full grown, it is larger than the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches." Matthew 13:31-32
Jesus uses several illustrations in this chapter to describe what His kingdom is like. They all share one thing in common. When one comes into His kingdom, we start out small. We are a small seed planted, but that small seed is destined to grow to be the largest in the garden. It also will be the plant that is the most useful, and of the most value. So the small seed is in the ground, but when it grows it will be a great treasure. The last shall be first, and the humble shall be exalted. Wait on the Lord. He has something great for all of us.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
