This is a sunset picture I took this evening. We have been blessed with many beautiful sunsets lately. Makes me wonder if Jesus was looking at this kind of sunset when He fed the five thousand.
Just a few thoughts about our lectionary scriptures from Matthew this week. Jesus feeds the multitudes and a miracle it truly is. He fed five thousand on the side of a hill and satisfied them. Hmmmm!!! Jesus is still feeding and satisfying today. His Holy word is full of hunger satisfying scriptures. You know the kind of hunger that just will not be satisfied until we commit our lives to His will and His way.
The hungry souls that are wandering this world are just waiting to be witnessed to by you and me. It truly is a responsibility that Jesus passed on to us. We must reach out to all who are hurting and in need so that Jesus is truly feeding the millions who are spiritually starving to death.
It was a miracle then and can be a miracle now. Are you filling the great commission of witnessing Jesus Christ to the world. It is good news to those who have never heard there is a God who loves them. Your witness could satisfy hungry souls wherever you are. Open your hearts and minds to the spirit and go out into the world you live in and feed those who are lost and hungry. It is the great commission.
Mat 14:16 But Jesus said to them, “They don’t need to go away. You give them something to eat.”
Mat 28:19 Therefore, as you go, disciple all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,
Mat 28:20 teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you each and every day until the end of the age.”
Have a great week full of God’s blessings and peace,
