Feed Me
St. John 6:8-9
One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to Him, “There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are they among so many?”
This scripture speaks of Jesus feeding the five thousand. We often get caught up with people knowing who we are; networking, fellowshipping, getting our name out there, but, I learned something from the young man that had two fish and five loaves of bread. You don't have to know my name. You don't even have to know what I did or what I have. As long as what I am doing is able to help someone else.
When I started the DAILY LOVE, I never thought about all who would be helped by them. It doesn't have to have Otis Petteway's name on it. At the end of the day we have to get to a point where we understand that it's not about us. It's about Him.
It's not about what we're going through, because the little you complain about is enough to feed five thousand. The difference between complaining about the little you have to eat and knowing that the little can feed five thousand is whose hand it's in. What you may call a little, God calls enough.
So, don't get caught up on what you have, recognize whose hand it's in. Take what God's has given you, even if it's five loaves and two fish and put it in His hands.
DAILY LOVE FROM HIM ABOVE
