John 6:9 (NKJV) 9 “There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are they among so many?”
God uses people who are in the right place, with the right goods, at the right time, to fulfill His miracles.
Look at this boy and what he had to offer; five loaves of bread, and two fish. Was it enough to feed all 5,000 people? No, not alone.
However, Jesus took it and He gave thanks. He then gave it to the disciples to distribute among the people. And there was PLENTY! More than enough, with 12 baskets left over. Praise be to God!
John 6:13 (NKJV) 13 Therefore they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.
This young boy, with his 2 fish and 5 barley loaves, was in the right place at the right time.
Have we ever thought that where we are right now, or what we have in our possession may be exactly what God may use to do a miracle?
Maybe we have never thought that God will use us in doing such a thing. But He may. He may use what we have; our goods, our gifts, our compassion, our prayers, etc. We just don’t know, do we?
God is God. He does miracles. Would we be open and willing, like this boy, to give to God what He is asking in that moment?
We never know when we will be part of a miracle that God is performing for someone. Just be ready to say yes.
