Don't Hesitate
When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd
coming toward him, he said to Philip,
“Where shall we buy bread for these people to eat?”
He asked this only to test him, for he already
had in mind what he was going to do.
Philip answered him,
“It would take more than half a year’s wages to buy
enough bread for each one to have a bite!”
Another of his disciples, Andrew,
Simon Peter’s brother, spoke up,
“Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and
two small fish, but how far will they go
among so many?”
Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.”
There was plenty of grass in that place, and
they sat down (about five thousand men were there).
Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and
distributed to those who were seated as much
as they wanted. He did the same with the fish.
When they had all had enough to eat,
he said to his disciples,
“Gather the pieces that are left over.
Let nothing be wasted.”
John 6:5-12 NIV
Don't hesitate. Come forward into my
presence. Feel the warmth and healing
of my love. Learn who you are in me.
Reach out to those along your pathway.
Watch for those who need me. You can
feed them the same love which you have
received. You can direct them to me.
