Feed Us (John 6: 1 - 15)

As Christians, once we place our faith in the Lord Jesus, there are two types of faith that we must encounter at times in our life. The first one is when we are put in impossible situations, and we must grit and hold fast to Jesus and this will be next week’s sermon. As for this week, it is about trusting the Lord Jesus for the day to day. In this passage, Jesus goes on to do the impossible, asking a question of Phillip whilst knowing the answer and how He was going to deliver for this great and vast crowd that were hungry before Him. We see that Phillip, though with Jesus, still does not understand the awe surpassing provision that Jesus offers to His people, that He cares for us and looks after us and knows the answer to our problems before they ever arise. It took the faith of a young boy to hand over what he had into the hands of Jesus, and with that small offering, Jesus feeds the multitude. He blesses countless lives with the small act of faith from a small child. May we trust the Lord Jesus with our day to day knowing that He does care about us, He does love us and that the Lord is working everything good for those who love Him. May we be encouraged this season.
