Mark 6:38
This miracle is often misunderstood because Jesus used existing food and multiplied it. Could he have made bread out of thin air? Certainly. But, he didn’t do it that way. There was a lesson in the method. Indeed, with Jesus there is always a lesson somewhere. He doesn’t do miracles just to do miracles.
He knew what he was going to do. He knew that he was going to make more than enough bread for all. But, he asks about what they have anyway. He wants to multiply it.
2 Kings 15:1-17:41
James 2:11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.
Heavenly Father, thank you for the kinship in Christ that we may share with other believers. You know that we need fellowship with our fellows. You know that relationships with other humans is important to us. You know that we crave the companionship of others, in addition to our need for a relationship with you. Thank you for understanding us so well! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise you, Amen.
Pray for a man who has cancer.
