But He answered them,
"You give them something
to eat."
..."How many loaves
do you have?
Go and see."
Mark 6. 37-38
We cry out,
"Oh God, do something!"
And He replies to us,
"I have.
That's why I put you there."
The ancient saints
are all depicted
with something in their hands,
what marked their lives,
their way of ministering
to those around them
and to whom God positioned
on their paths.
God uses us to bless others
and change the world.
What has God called me to
in this day?
May we be aware of the loaves
God has placed in our hands.
May we ask God's blessing
on what we have, what we do,
and how we can love others,
even in desperate situations.
And God multiplies exponentially.
How many loaves do we have?
In God's hands,
more than enough.
O LORD,
Reveal Yourself to us, today,
in opportunities to bless others,
to feed them in their hungers,
to come alongside
even in the everydays,
to bring Your blessing
in barren places of the soul.
Help us to bake extra loaves,
come prepared
and share generously
Your love and grace,
no matter where
You guide us today.
We ask Your blessing.
But we also ask
that we may bless You.
