After ministering healing to a crowd, Jesus feeds about five thousand men with five loaves and two fish. The first multiplication of the Son of God, recorded in Matthew in chapter 14, begins with an act of love. Many sick people waited anxiously for Jesus on the beach where he would disembark with his disciples. Even tired, the master answers them, releasing healing. The disciples warn him about the time and ask Jesus to advise the crowd to go home and eat. Jesus uses the situation to teach and instigates them, challenging them to provide food. The returned answer symbolizes the size of the faith: "(...) We have here but five loaves and two fish" (Matthew 14: 17b).

The amount was more than enough for anyone who specializes in multiplication.

Bread for bread, fish for fish, Jesus divides the pieces that fill baskets and more baskets until everyone is satisfied. It does not matter if you are in a desert or in the middle of a crowd, if you stand before Jesus, NOTHING WILL FAIL YOU. Jesus never leaves us empty. He always reserves surprises beyond what we dream. God bless your day!
