““When the people saw the sign that he had done, they said, “This is indeed the Prophet who is to come into the world!””
I heard about a man the other day who was having a hard time finding his phone, and everywhere he looked it wasn't there. Eventually, he decided to look under his bed, in case it had fallen there accidentally. It was too dark to see very well, so he used the handy light app on his phone…to look for his phone. It was a few minutes apparently before he realized what he was doing.
Sometimes we forget to see what Jesus has done. In John 6, Jesus fed over 5,000 followers with only five barley loaves and two fish. There was so much to eat that there were 12 baskets of leftovers from 2 dried fish and five biscuits (or crackers). The people saw what GREAT things Jesus was able to do with minimal resources.
Maybe you're walking through life with "few opportunities" or "limited resources," but thankfully we have a Savior who can do GREAT things! The people on the side of the Sea of Galilee were ready to make Jesus their king, let’s make Jesus our king today and work, for the night is coming.
Let your light shine!
