It was getting into the evening, there were many about 5,000 men many with wives and children, still present. The disciples came to Jesus explaining that this was a deserted place, suggesting to send them away, for they have nothing to eat. Jesus said to them, “YOU GIVE THEM something to eat.” “Shall we go and buy bread and give to them?” But He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go and see.” And they said, “Five, and two fish.” “So they sat down in ranks…Jesus looked up to heaven, blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to His disciples to set before them.” (Mark 6:35-41) After they all ate and were full, “…they took up twelve baskets full of fragments and of the fish.” (Mark 6:42-43)
If we by FAITH believe we can do what we are asked to do, then by FAITH we can carry out what needs to be done. Like Jesus taught us, “…YOUR KINGDOM COME. YOUR WILL BE DONE…” (Matt. 6:9-10)
