BOB

Good morning this is Bob Peden of Central a United Methodist Community here

in Meridian.
There is one miracle that is recorded in all four gospels: the feeding of the five

thousand. Jesus took a small amount of fish and bread and made a meal for a

multitude.
The apostle John records a detail that the others leave out. A boy with five small

loaves of bread and two small fish offered what he had to feed everyone else.

Jesus took that sack lunch and fed thousands.

What could the boy have been thinking? Did he hope that everyone else had as

much to offer as he had? Did he innocently hope that his lunch would be enough

for everyone?
Or did he have a childlike faith that believed Jesus would work wonders with a

couple of sandwiches?

I challenge you to take what you have and offer it to God. Give him your money.

Give him your time. Give him your life. And he will work wonders. And when

he is done, there will be plenty left over.
