Saturday... He just keeps giving..
Over in Mark 6:30-43 it tells of Jesus ministering to a large crowd and they became very hungry. And Jesus took care of their need. Verse 42 (NLT) says, "They ate as much as they wanted." And verse 43 says, "A total of 5,000 men and their families were fed."
Verse 41 says, "Jesus took five loaves and two fish, looked up to heaven and blessed them. Then, breaking the loaves into pieces, he kept giving the bread to the disciples so they could distribute it to the people." "He kept giving."
Then over in Mark 8:1 it says, "About this time another large crowd had gathered and the people ran out of food again." Wouldn't you think He would be frustrated? Why didn't they bring food? What about those things that keep happening to us and we come to Him with our continuing need?
Verse 2 Jesus said, "I feel sorry for these people. They have been here with me for three days, and they have nothing to eat."
God cares. No matter what is happening in your life, even if it keeps happening, God cares. He really does.
This time they found seven loaves and a few fish. It doesn't take much for God to make a difference. Verses 6 & 7, "So Jesus told all the people to sit down on the ground. Then He took the seven loaves, thanked God for them, and broke them into pieces. He gave them to the disciples who distributed the bread to the crowd. A few small fish were found, too, so Jesus also blessed these and told the disciples to distribute them."
Verse 8 continues, "They ate as much as they wanted." Verse 9, "There were about 4,000 men in the crowd and Jesus sent them home after they had eaten."
Nothing is too little and nothing is too great for God to make a difference through. Because He cares He keeps giving.
Here we have a new day. When we come to the end, let's just stop and looked back on what He has done for us. He just keeps giving, doesn't He? Yes, yes! #todaysbeginning
