Who, Me? Yes, You!

Luke 9:13
But He said to them, “You give them something to eat.” And they said, “We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless we go and buy food for all these people.”
Devotion
Jesus calls his followers to take the next right step of obedience by faith before needing to see the full path to his promises. Miracles of multiplication are like walking on the water, only experienced by those willing to step out of their comfort zones. As ambassadors of Jesus, we're empowered to provide spiritual bread to those who hunger.
Let's be bolder by asking those in need, “How can I pray for you?” Let's be bolder by asking Jesus, “What would you like me to share with my friend?” Sure, we may feel wretched, poor, pitiful, blind, and naked just as the disciples felt they had nothing to share. But as we seek first God's kingdom and God's righteousness, God provides more than enough to share.

Deliver a meal. When you make dinner, double that recipe and take it to someone who may need a helping hand. A busy mother, a sick friend, or an elderly neighbor would love a night free from worrying about what’s for dinner.
