Jesus said God's kingdom is like a tiny mustard seed. It's one of the smallest seeds!
But when you plant it, it grows into a big plant, like a tree, and birds come and sit in its branches.
God's kingdom started small, with Jesus and a few friends. Now it's all over the world! Even a tiny bit of faith in God is powerful.
