You might think it’s smelly…..
5 Loaves and 2 fish.
5,000 people were hungry and there was no food around. A little boy gave all he had, and Jesus made it enough. He fed alllllllll of them and even had leftovers. All we are being asked is to give what we have. We might think it’s insufficient, smelly, or stale. Thoughts that might come to the surface for you may sound like this:
“I am not educated enough to teach on that”.
“I am not fit enough to motivate that group”.
“I’m not organized enough to lead that rally”.
“I’m not good with my words, I can’t speak on that”.
BUT GOD......
That passion inside of you? Someone needs it.
That work you do? Someone needs it.
That experience you have? Someone needs it.
I look around and see others who are more eloquent, more inspiring, more educated, more influential and I start to play small. “What am I even doing here?” Ever thought that? “What do I have to offer that even matters?” Been there? I’m there right now. And I think - I have ME. Better yet - I have the Lord. And He wants to use me and He wants to use you with whatever we have.
You are loved.
You matter.
Bring all you have and watch Him work.
