"So often we find ourselves whispering, I do not have enough, enough money, enough time, enough strength, even enough faith. The disciples knew that feeling well. In their hands were only five loaves of bread and two fish, and by human measure it seemed far too little. Yet Jesus gently said to them, Bring them here to me. He does not require abundance from us. He invites surrender. When we place what little we have into the hands of God, it is transformed by His grace. A small act of love, a quiet prayer, a simple gesture of compassion can become a vessel of His provision and presence. Whatever rests upon your heart today—your burdens, your uncertainties, your hopes, your brokenness—bring them to Jesus. What is small in our hands becomes more than enough in the hands of God."
