This really captures something essential about faiththat gets overlooked. The mustard seed idea especially hits home because we're so conditioned to expect immediate results. I dunno, there's somthing counterintuitive about the kind of patient trust that doesn't demand proof. Been through a rough patch last year where nothing seemed to move forward, but looking back now the quiet stuff was actually doing more work than I realized.

People of faith often die an anonymous death, but their names are remembered in heaven.
