Mark 11:23 "A childs story"

The Mountain and the Mustard Seed- a child's story

Once upon a time, in a field far far away, there lived a really big Mountain.
This Mountain was the biggest mountain in the whole world.
He was so tall that he blocked all the Sun from shining on any of the trees in his field.
Mountain was so loud when he laughed that he woke up all the little baby rabbits in the field.
And He was so wide that it took a whole week to walk around him!
Mountain was proud that he was so big and he would bully all the other people in the field.
One day the little trees in the field asked Mountain if he could move to the side, just a little bit, so they could get some sun and grow big and strong like Mountain.
Well mountain stood up even taller so they got less Sun then ever and this made the little trees really sad.
When Mountain saw how sad the little trees were he laughed and laughed.
Momma Rabbit asked Mountain if he could be just a little bit quieter because she had just put all the baby bunnies in bed.
But Mountain laughed even louder and woke all the little bunnies up.
This made the bunnies cry and Momma Rabbit sad.
Mountain was very happy that he could be mean and no one could stop him because he was so much bigger than them.
One day little Mustard Seed was going to Sunday School.
Mustard Seed was late so he was running  as fast as he could and he ran right into big Mountain. (Ouch)
Mustard Seed looked up and up and up until he could see Mountain.
"Wow he is really big." Mustard Seed thought to himself.
"Excuse me" Mustard Seed said as loud as he could. "Mr. Mountain could you move to the side just a little so I can get to Sunday School on time?"
Mountain laughed when he saw Mustard Seed because he had never seen someone so small.
"I will not move little Mustard Seed because I am bigger than you and I am a bully.  You will have to go all the way around me."
Mustard Seed would miss Sunday School if he went all the way around Mountain but he didn't get sad because he remembered what Jesus said about mean mountains.
Jesus said "If you have faith and ask a mountain to move then it has to move."
So Mustard Seed closed his eyes and prayed to Jesus that this mean mountain would move so he could go to Sunday School.
When he opened his eyes the ground started shaking!
It shook and it shook, until that big mean Mountain came tumbling down and was even smaller than the little Mustard Seed.
Mustard Seed smiled and picked up little mountain and took him to Sunday School with him.

The End

Remember that all it takes is trusting God and He can do all things for you. Read Mark 11:23-26 With your little Mustard Seeds and teach them how to pray the prayers of Faith.

God Bless everyone, have a great day and happy Monday!
