Mustard Seeds - Matthew Kelly
LISANTE
I was born and raised in Australia and so far life has been a rich and exciting experience for me.
If I were to dedicate the rest of my life to writing I would not be able to sufficiently expand on the ideas in this volume. It seems today that everything in our lives we do quickly. Try to ponder this book slowly.
In each of these brief passages I have tried to present a seed of truth. Sow the seed in the rich and fertile soil of your heart. Water it with the flowing waters of contemplation and allow the sunlight of life’s experiences to shine upon it. The seed will grow into a wonderful tree bearing the fruits of: peace, joy, humility, integrity, wisdom, and love.
In the last five years of my life there has been no shortage of moments in which to reflect and no shortage of experiences to reflect upon. At various times particular thoughts have struck me, and so, I have written them down. I know I am not the first to write about some of these ideas. Nonetheless, I believe all of them to be true and have found them useful in my struggle to grow spiritually. The truth in some of them does not scream out at you. Do not consider something false or worthless just because its truth is not immediately evident.
What fills the pages of this book I wrote primarily for myself. I now share these seeds with you because I know how they have helped me.
These words will challenge you to think, reflect, ponder, and pray. This book will help you to see the person you are and the person you can be. Open your heart and mind, and your life will change gracefully.

You are always worrying about all the things you are not.
What about all the things you are?
To be busy opposing wrong is not the same as being right.
Suppose I gave you the next five minutes to decide what you want to do for the next twenty-four hours. Now, let us make the assumption that you will live on earth for about seventy-five years. That seventy-five years compared to eternity is like the five minutes you take to plan your day.
It is my belief that in every person there is an innate goodness.
Seek it out and help it to grow.
Some people look at the wonderful and beautiful things of this world and say to themselves, "I must have these
