Luke 17:5-10

Chapter 17

5
The apostles said to the Lord:  “Increase our faith.”  And the Lord said: 
6

“If you have faith, even the size of a mustard seed, you may say to this tree, ‘Be uprooted, and plant yourself in the sea!’ and it will obey you.”

7

Who among you would tell your servant, coming in from the fields after plowing or tending sheep, ‘Go ahead and have your dinner’? 

8

No, you tell him, ‘Prepare my dinner. Put on your apron and wait on me while I eat and drink. You can eat and drink afterward.’

9

Do you thank this servant for doing what you told him to do? 

10

I don’t think so. Therefore, when you have done all that you have been told to do, you should say, ‘We are no more than servants; we have only done our duty.’”
