Set Apart
Keeping God close to our hearts is something that we need to do 100% of the time. It should be something we pick up and set down when its convenient, its a full time job that we are responsible for. 1 Peter 1:15-16 says "But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do, for it is written. Be holy because I am holy". Jesus wiped away our sins so that we may be holy and not sinners. As christians, we need to be... Read more...
Let Your Light Shine
There is north of 8 billion people on this earth, yet not a single person is the exact same as the other. We all have different personalities, values, and experiences that have all contributed to who we are today. Each and every little conversation and experience we have slowly shapes us into who we are today. Since no one is the same as the other, let your light shine. Matthew 5:16 says "In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and... Read more...
Rise Again
If you are reading this, take a deep breath and thank God for another beautiful day under the sun. Regardless if it is extremely hot out, raining, gloomy, or snowy, every day holds its beauty; it's up to you if you want to see it or not. Regardless of what happened yesterday, God woke you up. He left all your sins in the past because he still has something for you. You still have a purpose. Proverbs 24:16 says "For though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again, but...

Doers of the Word
Throughout our lives, we read many bible verses, hear bits of wisdom from others, and grow in our faiths both personally and through community. Some of the things we learn, such as giving up a sin that we commit regularly may be hard. We might know that what we are doing is bad, but have never fought back. In doing this, we need to be strong, stay planted, and listen to what the Word tells us to do. We should not just listen to the Word and move on with... Read more...
Stand Firm
We have a shirt here at Mustard Seed named Unyielding. On the back of this shirt, it say "Stand Firm". Why do we say stand firm, and what are we standing firm against? This may be something that comes to mind, and the saying "Stand Firm", can relate to many different things in your life. This shirt is directly connected to the verse Ephesians 6:13. This verse states "Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand... Read more...
Giving Up Control
Take a look back in the past. Look at yourself 1 year, 5 years, or even 10 years ago. Look at the differences in your personality, interests, and even lifestyle. So much has changed over the span of those years. A couple years ago, you may have thought you knew exactly where you were going in life, but that is just not the case. We have no idea where our lives are going. No matter how hard we try to control our lives, we have no idea what the outcome... Read more...
Influence Despite its Scale
Anytime we open our phones or take a glance at the TV, we see people with great amounts of influence. We see someone on Tik Tok with millions of followers and politicians who pull in millions of viewers a day just to watch them.  These people are viewed as extremely influential, but we fail to see the amount of influence we have ourselves. You have something that people on social media and TV don't have. Whether you speak to hundreds of people a day, or just 10, you have the... Read more...
Trusting in Him
No matter what happens throughout our lives, we will aways have things go greater than expected, and terribly wrong. Although these hurdles may seem like major setbacks, we need to remember that God has plans for us. No flower can bloom without the rain, and no person can grow stronger without trials. Think about times when you were in class. When you first start a new subject, you may feel overwhelmed with new information you know nothing about; but as time goes on you start to get a grasp of...

Appreciate his Beauty
Stop for a moment. Take a second to appreciate the birds of the air. The trees of a forest. The fish that swarm the deep, vast waters of the ocean. Take a second to appreciate the life that God has given you. Look at your family and friends that support you throughout your life. Think of the opportunities that have been presented to you every single day; either big or small. Look at the body he has entrusted you in, and the days that he has allowed you to live....

Forgive Yourself
You are reading this so obviously God has woken you up today, but what did you do yesterday? What terrible thing did you do a week or even one year ago? Sometimes, it's easy to let sins we have committed live inside our heads. It almost feels as if it is haunting us at times with a vivid image in our minds. No matter how many times you have committed a sin, or how long ago it may be, give up on it. Learn to let it go. I know... Read more...
Rewarded with your hearts desires
We all know that we need to listen to God. We know that he gives us guidelines to how we should live, which will help us throughout our lives. These paths and guidelines are hard to follow, regardless of how great or small they may be; but did you know that the reward for following him is greater than you think. Psalm 37:4 says "Take delight in the Lord,    and he will give you the desires of your heart". Take in the true meaning of this verse. No matter how far... Read more...
New spark of life
Life gets buys; very busy. It's extremely easy to let every day blend together and almost feel as if you are stuck in a cycle. A cycle of repeating daily activities again and again. This loop is easy to get caught in, and hard to break out of. It can cause life to feel almost monotone and can make you completely lose your spark. Think back to when you were a kid; young and full of life. Showing up to kindergarten felt like a completely new day, going to the... Read more...
No dreams left on the pillow
What is one thing that you have wanted to achieve all your life, but have never had the time or resources to achieve it. Take a second to visualize what that may be. What if I told you, that whatever your dream is, is one hundred percent achievable. Now, I know what you are thinking; "How could I possibly achieve this. There is no way this guy knows anything". There is only one step that is needed to take to make any goal achievable. That step is putting your faith... Read more...
You have done it again.
You have done it again. You fell into the same sin that you have fallen into hundreds of times. You are a repeated offender with the charge of sinning. These are all things we say to ourselves when we sin. Although these statements are true, they should not be the focus point. We shouldn't focus on the fact that we stumbled, but what caused us to stumble along with how we can prevent another trip in the future. Jesus has died for you. He didn't die to wipe away 1...

Why are you afraid of failure?
Picture this; you work a corporate job in the tech industry. Your dream is to become a vice president in the company within the near future. You work overtime every day paying close attention to every detail in the work you report to your peers and boss. One day a managerial job opening is presented to you by none other than your boss. He encourages you to apply and you jot him down as a reference since he knows how hard you work and the quality of work you produce.... Read more...
The Loud Silence of God
Sometimes, when it comes to having a relationship with God, we all go through what we like to call "dry patches". It feels as if God isn't there. It's like he isn't there for us no matter what we say to him or how we feel about this "dry patch". Although it feels this way, we couldn't be farther from the truth. He is right in front of us everywhere we go. We can see him when we take a look at the beauty of his creations. Small and subtle... Read more...
