Friday, April 7th
Andrew
said, "There is a boy here with
five barley loaves and two fish, but
what is that among so many?"
Jesus said, " Make the people
sit down". Then Jesus took the
loaves . gave thanks and gave them
out .
He did the same with the fish, giving
out as much s they wanted.
John
6:8-11
All that is in Heaven and in earth
originates from the loving Heavenly
Father, and all is purposed for
the building up of His eternal Kingdom.
But all is freely given and the
children of the Father are free
to offer or withhold that which
His bounty provides.
And all is provided as a means
of offering as well as for the building
up of mind and body. What a wonderful
offering then, was the small boy's
gift of bread and fish : freely
he gave and richly the whole multitude
of people were fed. So is every
gift, freely offered blessed and
used in the glorious, ongoing purpose
of the Father, through My agency
and in the power of Our Holy Spirit.
See in this generous act of the
small boy a foreshadowing of the
offering of My very life to the
Father for the sustenance and nourishment
of all who seek in truth and trust
and love.
Identify, offer and receive in
like manner so that you may become
a part of both the offering and
blessing.
