If you see your troubles as opportunities to trust God and his ability to multiply what you give him, then even the smallest incidents take on significance. Turn and look at the One standing next to you. Count first on Christ – he can help you do the impossible. You simply need to give him what you have, and watch him work.
“Jesus took the loaves” (John 6:11). When Jesus fed the five thousand hungry people he didn’t have to use the loaves. He made manna fall for the Israelites; he could have done it again. Instead, he chose to use the single basket of the small boy.
What’s in your basket? God can take a small thing and do a big thing. If God can turn a basket into a buffet, don’t you think he can do something with your five loaves and two fishes of faith?
