Mark 6:44
Being that there were around five thousand men, the women and children who may have been along as well would have rounded out that number quite a bit. We know from Matthew that there were also women and children present. Thus, the total number could be as high as 15,000 if you count one woman and one child for every man. So, 15k at the high end and maybe 6-7k at the low end.
1 Chronicles 6:1-81
James 2:17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.
Heavenly Father, we so often try to limit you because we think that you are like us. Though we are like you in some ways, you are so much higher above us and so much different from us that we need to realize your limitlessness. You are not influenced by things like we are, but are changeless. Thank you for not giving up on us, for you surely could have. Thank you for your love for us! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise you, Amen.
Pray for a woman who is out of town.
