Lent 2014 page 20 by ric gustafson
Luke 9:13- ' He replied " You give them something to eat".
The disciples had thousands of hungry people to deal with. They only had enough food for five or six. They went to Jesus and explained to him the situation. Jesus asked what they had. He blessed what they had and they began to feed the people.
As they began handing out the food, a miracle happened. They obeyed their master and Jesus worked a miracle through them. Imagine their surprise at the number of baskets of leftovers that were collected. The little that they had grew into more than enough.
God calls us to do impossible tasks. Logic tells us it cannot be done. When we turn away and say no to God, we discount his power. Jesus can work miracles when we say yes to his call.
I pray that I will believe in Jesus's power and his miracles.
