Cary Cox, from Mark 4:26-34. Jesus said the kingdom of God has come – yet, surprisingly, it looks insignificant and small to those who are blind to its beauty. It often looks like nothing is happening. But Jesus said we scatter the seeds and sleep. We rest because God is working behind the scenes! We can’t control it. It is the work of God. So be encouraged in the ministry – rest in Christ and trust him for the results!

What place in our heart and home does the proclaimed gospel of Jesus have?
