Easter Resurrection Miracles

If only You had faith the size of a mustard seed.
You could say to a mountain- be thrown into the sea, and it would be thrown into the sea. Easter is tied into Resurrection Miracles. Things thought dead come to life.


Jesus used a lot of agricultural metaphors. For instance, "I am the vine, you are the branches."


One of his more famous statements is "if you had faith the size of a grain of mustard seed you could say to this mountain be cast into the sea and it would be tossed into the sea"-- depending on your translation. He explains, look at the tiny mustard seed- it grows into the hugest plant in the garden that birds build nests in. (see above- a mustard tree)- He is saying Faith as tiny as a mustard seed is the foundational growth agent for enormous life potential, that gives food and shelter to life. It might start small, but it has the potential to create the largest life in your garden.




Faith- Belief. Ask and it shall be given. Who is this guy who said this? "I am" he said "I am The Resurrection and The Life" The mystery of the Easter miracle is found in this.
