Luke 9:16-17 (ESV)
16 And taking the five loaves and the two fish, he looked
up to heaven and said a blessing over them. Then he broke the loaves and gave
them to the disciples to set before the crowd. 17 And they all ate and were
satisfied. And what was left over was picked up, twelve baskets of broken
pieces.
The disciples worried -- we only have five small loaves
and two fishes! Whatever will we do?? Five loaves and two fishes could never
feed the multitudes in the natural realm! But we have a God who is in the
multiplication business! He works on an entirely different mathematical
equation than we are accustomed to -- He takes the little we offer and turns it
into more than we could fathom!
How often do we feel as if we have little to offer? The
Lord is interested in everything we have to give, even if it seems minuscule to
our eyes!
Let's not be afraid to offer up our gifts, talents,
abilities, accomplishments and material things that we may find insignificant.
They are not! When we give up even the littlest of things to the Lord, He
brings forth an abundance!
Dear Lord, we thank You for the gifts You have given to
us. Help us be willing to give them to You so that You can multiply and use
them in a mighty way. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
