The Sheer Magnitude

The sheer magnitude.  You can’t miss it…when you read the story of the feeding of the five thousand.

The magnitude of numbers.  There were five thousand…plus women and children.  So how many people were fed?  Likely about ten thousand.  That’s a big crowd.

The magnitude of Jesus’ appeal.  His teaching and power to deliver and heal brought the masses to Him.

The magnitude of the miracle.  From five loaves and two fish…He fed ten thousand people.  And all were filled and satisfied.

The magnitude of the leftovers.  It took twelve baskets just to pick up what was left over.

But you should not be surprised.  This is the One who spoke and the universe was created.

So bring your needs to Jesus.  The supply is always adequate.
