They don’t need to go away,” Jesus told them. “You give them something to eat.”
“But we only have five loaves and two fish here,” they said to Him.
“Bring them here to Me,” He said.
Immediately Jesus spoke to them. “Have courage! It is I. Don’t be
afraid.”
“Lord, if it’s You,” Peter answered Him, “command me to come to You on the water.”
“Come!” He said.
“Lord, if it’s You,” Peter answered Him, “command me to come to You on the water.”
“Come!” He said.
Immediately Jesus reached out His hand, caught hold of him, and said to
him, “You of little faith, why did you doubt.
What can we learn from our Lord with the feeding
of the 5000, our Father, is our provider.
No matter how impossible we think it is our Father
is able to overcome and provide more than we will ever need.
A friend looked at it from a different angle that
if you are willing and avail yourself the Father will take your five loaves and
two fishes and do miraculous things with it. Avail your life, time, talent and
resources and the Father will work extraordinary things with your ordinary
life.
As followers of Christ the Lord is always with us
through the Spirit.
We should never be afraid but even if we stumble
in fear our Lord is always near to lend us a hand to take the next step.
Peter is a great example of how we can mess it up
in journey carrying our Lords gospel to all around us. But our Lord is always near
to guide us back and restore us. We will read more of Peter’s story when
journey through the gospel by John.
Let us avail ourselves to the Father in every way
we can, even when we think we cant be of use to Him, let us trust and step out
in faith with courage and confidence.
