The Bread of Life: the five thousand b

The Bread of Life: the five thousand b by ric gustafson


Aron saw a young tall black bearded man pointing at the huge crowd. He saw other men pointing their fingers at the crowd and throwing up their hands in desperation.
Jesus looked at Phillip. " Where shall we buy bread for all these people to eat?".
He looked at Jesus with a look of frustration. " Wages earned for eight months would not be enough to buy enough bread for everyone to have one bite".
Andrew noticed Aron and walked toward him. " Boy, what's your name?".
" Aron".
" What's in your knapsack?".
" Five small barley loaves and two small fish".
" Please come with me".
Andrew and Aron walked up to Jesus.
Jesus gave Aron a big smile.
" Master, this is Aron and he has five small barley loaves and two small fish in his knapsack". He frowned. " But how far will that go with so many people?".
" Tell the people to sit down". He looked at Aron. " Thank you Aron, may God bless you".
Jesus lifted the knapsack toward heaven and blessed it.
Aron started to walk home and knew something wonderful had just happened.
