It tells, that mustard seed has consciousness. The seed is absolutely clear in its mind of its function to produce a new mustard plant. Would it be enough for a mustard seed to be only half conscious to fulfil its task? Hardly. If the information contained in a mustard seed is damaged somehow it cannot fulfil its task. It will not become a mustard plant.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to understand that belief and consciousness are not relative things. We cannot be a little conscious. We cannot fulfil our function with half consciousness, halfheartedly. We must be either fully conscious and believe or not.<\/p>\n<p>The parable of the mustard seed tells us that if we were completely aware of our function as a mustard seed is, we would move mountains.<br \/>\nThe functions of human being is more diverse than that of a mustard seed. Neither the consciousness of a mustard seed is enough for us to fulfil our tasks nor tiny spark of faith. We must become like a mustard seed: fully aware of our function.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read also:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Thoughts Attracted by the Law of Attraction\" href=\"https:\/\/newarmorofgod.wpenginepowered.com\/wings-of-thought\/thoughts-attracted-by-the-law-of-attraction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Thoughts Attracted by the Law of Attraction<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; As I was translating in my text Thoughts Attract&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3087,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[284],"tags":[1629,1628],"class_list":["post-3086","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sixiangdechibang-5d-cat","tag-consciousness-2","tag-faith-2"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.putonthewholearmorofgod.love\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3086","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.putonthewholearmorofgod.love\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.putonthewholearmorofgod.love\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.putonthewholearmorofgod.love\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.putonthewholearmorofgod.love\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3086"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.putonthewholearmorofgod.love\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3086\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.putonthewholearmorofgod.love\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3087"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.putonthewholearmorofgod.love\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3086"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.putonthewholearmorofgod.love\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3086"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.putonthewholearmorofgod.love\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3086"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
