“When he went ashore he saw a great crowd, and he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. And he began to teach them many things. And when it grew late, his disciples came to him and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is now late. Send them away to go into the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat.” But he answered them, “You give them something to eat.” And they said to him, “Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give it to them to eat?” And he said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go and see.” And when they had found out, they said, “Five, and two fish.””

All,
This stands out because Jesus says, “You give them something to eat.” Does Jesus ever ask you to do the “impossible”? Doesn’t He know that it’s impossible without Him, but doesn’t He also need us to understand that before we can move forward? We should be thrilled when he puts a impossible or difficult task on our hearts. It just means we are about to witness a miracle. Please pray that we and our friends understand our full reliance on Jesus today for His purpose. Please pray for Wes and David’s group.
