Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand Luke 9:10-17 - Learning from Miracles

 Jesus fed more than 5000 people with 5 loaves and 2 fish. It was a miracle. But what else do you see?

Do you see Jesus as "the bread of life", the life giver as he proclaimed? The people followed Jesus for the food. Do you follow Jesus for His life and yours?


Lessons:

    Our message must not only be clear but also be supported by evidence. So we must share our personal testimonies --- the before and after stories.

    When an event happens, what do we see? Do we just see the surface signs? Do we go deeper and try to understand the why? Do we see from God's perspective and purpose? Do we see the opportunity in crisis and danger in opportunity? Do we see from others' perspectives?

    Need to get organized to make sure all are well taken care of. Need to clean up after a big feast or other celebration. Leave the place as clean as we found them.

    What does Jesus mean to us? How do we relate to Him? Is He God for us to obey or a Genie who answered to all our requests?
