There’s a story told of a farmer who planted a grove of bamboo trees. For years, he watered the soil faithfully, even though there was no visible growth. People mocked him for wasting his time, but he kept believing. Then, in the fifth year, the bamboo suddenly shot up — growing over 80 feet in just six weeks! The truth was that all along, the roots were growing deep beneath the surface.
Faith often feels like that — quiet, hidden, and sometimes discouraging. Jesus’ words in Mark 11:22 remind us to keep believing even when we cannot see the outcome. When life seems still, God is often working beneath the surface, preparing something that will rise in its season.
Think of Abraham, who waited decades for the fulfillment of God’s promise. Though the promise seemed delayed, he “did not waver through unbelief” but grew strong in faith (Romans 4:20). His story teaches us that true faith endures delay without giving up on God’s word.
Faith doesn’t deny the mountain before us; it declares that God is greater than the mountain. Keeping faith means holding on to God’s character even when the evidence looks contrary.
