Mark 4:26-34 Seeds and the Kingdom of God
Excerpt
It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when sown on the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth, yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes larger than all the garden plants and puts out large branches.
The seed is the Word of God, and in the parable of the Sower and here, we see this recurring theme — miraculous increase, that a seed, buried in the ground, should bring forth harvest — a plant that bears hundreds of seeds. This is a miracle.
