Daily Walk Through the New Testament May 28 Read Mark 6:21-44 It was the miracle everyone talked about. Jesus affected more people at this event than in any of His other miracles. It’s called the feeding of the 5000, but some suggest the crowd was actually close to 20,000! What is everyone talking about today? Bad economy. Debt crisis. Gas prices. War in Ukraine? Problems are on people’s minds, and they’re talking about them endlessly, especially with social media. Our problems should turn us to Jesus! God uses problems to bring us face-to-face with our deficiencies so that we might view His sufficiency as our only alternative. Every problem we have is an opportunity for us to believe in His power and goodness and to watch Him work in a miraculous way. What we need to recognize is something Vance Havner expressed well: “We are shipwrecked on God and stranded on omnipotence!” The day Jesus fed the multitudes, the need was great — thousands had nothing to eat. When Jesus took the bread and fish in His hands, “they all ate and were filled” (Mark 6:42). What do you need to put in His hands? There’s no need too big and no concern too small. You can trust your loving Savior to provide for any need.
