But his servant said,
"How can I set this
before a hundred men?"
So he repeated,
"Give them to the men
that they may eat
for thus says the LORD,
"They shall eat
and have some left."
So he set it before them.
And they ate
and had some left,
according to the word of the LORD.
2 Kings 4. 43
When we are faithful
in following the LORD,
even into what
we cannot yet understand,
God's fundamental law of
leftovers kicks in.
Lay before Him our day,
our work,
our efforts,
and He multiplies.
What seems to us a lack,
God redeems for His glory
in ways we may never
comprehend.
The point here is
not what God can do,
but are we willing
to submit to Him?
O LORD,
We bring before You
what seems to be
an impossible situation.
We lay it on the altar
that You may touch it
and turn the natural
into the supernatural
and the ordinary
into the extraordinary.
Help us to be sensitive
to the needs of others.
And to be aware of
Your hand upon us.
You do not just show up.
You sustain us.
