encounters with Jesus: five loaves and two fish

encounters with Jesus: five loaves and two fish by ric Gustafson


One day after healing an invalid man near Jerusalem's Sheep Gate, Jesus went to the Sea of Galilee. There he sat on a hill with his disciples. Gathered near them was a crowd of 5,000 people. Jesus knew that they would be hungry. He asked Philip where they could buy bread to feed them. Jesus knew the answer but wanted to test Philip's faith. Philip replied that no amount of money would come close to feeding that many people.
Andrew spotted a boy who had five barley loaves and two fish. Jesus blessed it and fed everyone with it until they were full. Jesus provided more than was needed because 12 baskets of leftover bread was there.
