How long shall I put up with you? Bring him here to Me."And Jesus rebuked him, and the demon came out of him, and the boy was cured at once.Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, "Why could we not drive it out?"And He said to them, "Because of the littleness of your faith; for truly I say to you, aif you have faith the size of ba mustard seed, you will say to cthis mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and dnothing will be impossible to you.["aBut this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting."]

Do not be afraid."And Peter answered him, "Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water."He said, "Come." So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus.But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, "Lord, save me."Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, "O you of little faith, why did you doubt?"And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased.And those in the boat worshiped him, saying, "Truly you are the Son of God."

Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples came to him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field."He answered, "The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man.The field is the world, and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one,and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels.Just as the weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so will it be at the end of the age.The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers,and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.
