Meditate On
Place It in His Hands
One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said
to Him, “There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but
what are they among so many?” Then Jesus said, “Make the people sit down.” Now
there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five
thousand. And Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks He
distributed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those sitting down; and
likewise of the fish, as much as they wanted. So when they were filled, He said
to His disciples, “Gather up the fragments that remain, so that nothing is
lost.” Therefore they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with the
fragments of the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had
eaten.
John 6:8–13
When Jesus saw the five loaves and two little fish,
unlike His disciples, He didn’t see the naturally impossible demand placed on
Him—to feed 5,000 men (not including the women and children) with a boy’s small
lunch. He saw the supernatural supply in His Father’s kingdom.
The result? Not only were the people fed till they were
stuffed, there were also 12 baskets full of leftovers!
My friend, are you facing a situation of insufficiency
today? Perhaps you can’t find enough time to get your work done, as well as
spend quality time with your family. Why not put your time in Jesus’ hands and,
as with the five loaves and two little fish, allow Him to multiply it? Jesus
will give you the wisdom on how best to use your time.
Try it for yourself. Bring your little to Jesus! He will
multiply whatever little you place in His hands with plenty left over!
