The Secret – Loaves and Fishes – John 6

June 30, 2018 by Chris Gribble

Impossible -(1-26)

Too big a problem – overwhelmed
Too many people – a huge crowd 5000 people.
Too little resources – not enough money
A seed of faith – one boy giving what he had.
Joined with obedience – the crowd sat down
God turns up – Everyone ate
Abundance – twelve baskets left over
Understanding – Is still coming

Searching for? (27-59)

Desire meets the uncomfortable truth,
Searching for…. Something,
Not understanding,
But, ravenous,
Wanting to be filled,
Always hungry again.

The answer,
Is eating,
The uncomfortable truth,
It’s not expected,
Or, wanted
But, it satisfies hunger.

The answer found,
In the ordinary,
Acts of love,
Filling,
Our deep ache,
Our spirit joining with Eternity.

Eat now,
The eternal flesh,
Life sustained,
Forever,
Heaven and earth meet,
Eternity’s gift found – Today.
