Lovin' the leftovers...

For there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, “Have them sit down in groups of about fifty each.” And they did so, and had them all sit down. And taking the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven and said a blessing over them. Then he broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples to set before the crowd. And they all ate and were satisfied. And what was left over was picked up, twelve baskets of broken pieces. (Luke 9:14-17 ESV)
A universal truth: when Christ is there, there is more than enough. Having made the mistake of questioning His instructions(and we all have done the same...) His disciples were able to see right before their eyes the results of following Him - there are always leftovers - more than enough than we need, to provide for us, and to share with others. Let us learn the lesson of the loaves - to trust Him more.
