Day 129 Bible Reading: 1 Samuel 5-7, John 6:1-21, Psalm 106:26-31 and Proverb 14:32-33
Overflowing. Abundance. More than enough. When God moves miraculously as he did in feeding the 5,000, he often goes far beyond our acknowledged need. The cup is more than full. Perhaps it’s time to share some of that overage with those still hungry around us.
"And when they had eaten their fill, he told his disciples, 'Gather up the leftover fragments, that nothing may be lost.'" – John 6:12 (English Standard Version)
"Dear Lord, you are our God of abundance, rich in glory, in you we are provided for exceedingly. Help us be contented with all the blessings received from you, and yet not forget those who are in need. May overflowing blessings be extended generously from us to those underprivileged. We can be extended arms of your grace. In Jesus’ name, Amen."
