Mark 4:32 King James
Version (KJV)
32 But when it is sown, it groweth up,
and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that
the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.
Mark 4:32 Contemporary
English Version (CEV)
32 But once it is planted, it grows
larger than any garden plant. It even puts out branches that are big enough for
birds to nest in its shade.

These are my thoughts.
Our faith may start as little but the Lord can work with
that to cause it to grow into something great.
Job
7:14-16 King James Version (KJV)
14 Then thou scarest me with dreams, and terrifiest me through
visions:
15 So that my soul chooseth strangling, and death rather than my life.
16 I loathe it; I would not live alway: let me alone; for my days are
vanity.
Job 7:14-16 Good News
Translation (GNT)
14 But you—you terrify me with dreams;
you send me visions and nightmares
15 until I would rather be strangled
than live in this miserable body.
16 I give up; I am tired of living.
Leave
me alone. My life makes no sense.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.
14 Job dreams you think could have been much worse then his
life but his dreams most likely was about a fallen relationship between him and
the Lord because of what he is going thru. Job is most likely talking to the Lord;
he is stating what the Lord has done to him that his friends are not seeing.
15 Job felt so much pain that he just wanted his life to be
over and was asking this from the Lord because Job knew that it was up to the
Lord to end his life and not up to Job, he was not going to end his own life.
16 Job was broken, his friends were no help and made things
worse, Job was just done.
