Mat 8:9  For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
8:10  When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.



Authority. No one likes it and yet every man on earth has to submit to someone. If not another man then to God. I personally don't like submitting to authority. It's hard and it's not my will but I'm learning that God wants us to submit to the authority that God puts above us. I find myself having to stop and have faith that God is guiding me and He is also guiding my leaders. The truth is that God only calls us to have faith like a mustard seed. Mustard seeds are really small. 

Mat 17:20 So Jesus said to them "because of your unbelief for assuredly I say to you if you have Faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, move from here to there and it will move and nothing will be impossible for you. 


---Application---


I want to follow my leaders and follow God without hesitating. Just as he calls us to.  I want to have the faith that God calls us to. Which is just a mustard seed.
