Two Fish and Five Barley Loaves

Two Small Fish and Five Barley Loaves

 by Shirley Rebstock 8/3/2015

Five thousand people gathered at the Sea of Galilee

Following Jesus, miracles hoping to see

Jesus asked His disciples"Where shall we buy bread for these people to eat?"

although He already knew how to accomplish this feat

One of His Disciples, Andrew, saw a young lad

Five barley loaves and 2 small fish is all he had

But how can so little feed so many

Jesus took the loaves and gave thanks and then there was plenty

After seeing this sign, the men knew the Prophet

This Jesus, who God sent into the world they had met

He took the fish and bread the little the boy had and made it grow

To feed the five thousand, the Bible tells us so

When you think you have very little to offer, no talent or skill

Remember the little boy who offered his meager meal

Jesus gave thanks for the loaves did He not

In this story,Jesus shows He can use our little and still bless a lot
