Jesus Feeds the 5000 contd.

I’m sure Jesus loves our questions. I know I love to sit and listen to my son ask me questions. It brings me joy…

Mark 6:35-44
35 By this time it was late in the day, so his disciples came to him. “This is a remote place,” they said, “and it’s already very late. 36 Send the people away so that they can go to the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat.”

37 But he answered, “You give them something to eat.”

They said to him, “That would take more than half a year’s wages[e]! Are we to go and spend that much on bread and give it to them to eat?”

38 “How many loaves do you have?” he asked. “Go and see.”

When they found out, they said, “Five—and two fish.”

39 Then Jesus directed them to have all the people sit down in groups on the green grass. 40 So they sat down in groups of hundreds and fifties. 41 Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to his disciples to distribute to the people. He also divided the two fish among them all. 42 They all ate and were satisfied, 43 and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces of bread and fish. 44 The number of the men who had eaten was five thousand.

Yes! A miracle. Jesus fed 5000 men, not to mention ethe women and children that were present with them at the time. He fed them all. Yes! With five loaves of bread and two fish. He fed them all!

Do you believe it? Of course you do. Have you doubted it? Of course you have. Why do you and I doubt? Because it doesn’t fit. It doesn’t fit our world. To be able to do that would rob our understanding of how this place works. It simply not possible! Or is it?

This is Jesus everyone. Jesus Christ, the Creator and savior of this world and our lives. That’s it. That’s all you need. It is HIM!

Now ask your question… How are we to feed all of these people? Then ask Jesus. Really. Ask Him now. And then go feed them today. #JesusSaves

Amen.
