Thought For The Day

Talking to Mulberry Trees

In Luke 17:6 Jesus said, You can say to this mulberry tree, ‘be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.’ Was He just ‘talking,’ sharing some kind of hyperbole that was to inspire those guys to be more ‘faithful,’ or do you think He meant exactly that?

How you answer the question–yes or no–is not the issue. The issue is whether or not you are talking to the mulberry trees you need moved. Of course, we probably don’t need to move a lot of trees in the course of our routine days, but we do need to move obstacles which hinder our spiritual growth. One of those obstacles is damaged relationships caused by improper actions or unkind words. A little talk infused with grace and llove will get things moving!
