He answered and said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they say unto him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them to eat? He saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? go and see. And whey they knew, they say, Five, and two fishes.<br /><br />How often are we guilty of putting limitations on God by not allowing him to fully use the abilities or the means he has given us? He could do things without us, but, he has given us the privilege to be the instruments he uses. Through fleshly means, there was no way they could feed this crowd of people, but through faith and obedience, it was provided. The tools Jesus needed were there, but they had to be put in his hands, in total submission to him, then the need was met. Jesus sent the Holy Ghost back to the Church when he went away, and promised us power to see the mission accomplished. We must rely on that power, submitting ourselves to the Holy Ghost, being obedient to his voice, allowing him to guide our every move, as we draw nearer to the coming of our Lord. If we are unsure of the "loaves" he has given us, we must..."go and see" and "when we know" we can submit to him and allow him to work through us. There are exciting things ahead for the Church, as we reach deeper relations with the Holy Ghost, allowing him full control.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1543326162352837242.post-19702390839579924142008-11-28T12:32:00.001-08:002008-11-28T12:32:28.484-08:00This is the first test for this Ministry's Blog.
