The Mystery of Multiplication

Many people live with the quiet belief that what they have isn’t enough. Not enough influence. Not enough talent. Not enough significance.

John 6 challenges that belief.

When Jesus asked His disciples to feed a massive crowd, they responded with logic. The math didn’t work. The resources weren’t there. But what they missed was who was standing right in front of them.

Jesus took a small lunch—offered by an unnamed boy—and revealed how the Kingdom works. What seems insufficient in human hands becomes more than enough in God’s hands.

The miracle wasn’t just about feeding people. It was about building faith.

If you feel overlooked or insignificant, remember this: God often does His greatest work through what we’re willing to release, not what we wish we had.

Never underestimate what God can do with what you already carry.

Leave a reaction. Post a comment. And let God multiply what is in your hands!
