Follow the Leader

Jesus had compassion on the large crowd that followed him on foot from their towns after hearing of his good works. The disciples wanted to send them away but Jesus knew what they lacked and he provided food miraculously. This shows that we should offer more than the word of God in situations where God has enabled us. Like Jesus we should always have faith in God our father and never complain of the little we have because God uses what he pleases.

Reflections

• The little you have is enough to share
• Are you sending people away just because you can’t meet all their needs?
• What is your attitude after giving?

Proverbs 3:27-28: Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to act. Do not say to your neighbor, “Come back tomorrow and I’ll give it to you”— when you already have it with you.
