2 Kings 4:42-44

Now a man from Baal Shalisha brought some food for the prophet—twenty loaves of bread made from the firstfruits of the barley harvest, as well as fresh ears of grain. Elisha said, “Set it before the people so they may eat.”  But his attendant said, “How can I feed a hundred men with this?” He replied, “Set it before the people so they may eat, for this is what the Lord says, ‘They will eat and have some left over.’”  So he set it before them; they ate and had some left over, just as the Lord predicted.

Today we have an event that reminds us of a few of the miracles that Jesus performed during His ministry on earth. Elisha, according to the word of the Lord, instructs the feeding of 100 men with only twenty loaves of barley bread and some grain. While the numbers aren't as drastic, the idea is the same. The Lord is directing this miracle, just like the ones found in the New Testament. These examples of miraculous provisions challenge us to see Jesus as the bread of life that is always enough. The Lord can do "more than enough" with what has been given you in your life. He is the master of cultivating the raw material that we are, and transforming our lives "according to His word". Today, recognize Jesus as the bread of life! His love will never fail you.
