Show Notes

When we meet the limits of our own ability while serving the Lord, we think it would be good if we had greater faith. But after finishing a task well, I may begin to think that, since I have done this much, the Lord must also fulfill my wishes. We seek help when we are lacking, and then put forward our own merit when results appear. Today the Lord speaks of a mustard seed to the apostles who ask for faith, and then teaches the attitude of a servant who has finished his work. Before these two words, we must look back on whom we rely on as we work and whose merit we regard that work as.
