PLACE IT IN HIS HANDS

  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,k 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!
