The New Math

“Jesus said, they do not need to go away, you give them something to eat.” Matthew 14:15-16

A large crowd had gathered to hear Jesus speak. Official estimates put the crowd size at 5,000, but in that day and age, they only counted men so with woman and children you likely have a group that would just fit into a modern NBA arena. As the day wore on, Jesus friends advised Him to send the crowd away to so they could get some food as they had no concession stands available. Jesus was about to open the first one.

When We See Problems, Jesus Sees An Opportunity.

Jesus took five loaves and two fish and divided them in such a way as to fill enough baskets to feed this massive crowd of more than ten thousand people, with twelve baskets left over. You see, that’s God’s version of math where five plus two equals ten thousand. What do you lack in your life? Let God’s math go to work for you. Hand your issues to Jesus. All He will see are opportunities to provide you with a miracle.
