I am often asked where I find my inspiration for sermons - this is one place. I believe God speaks to me daily and this is a place where you can look over my shoulder as I write some notes to myself as we journey towards Sunday . . .

Day 282 a note from God: Matthew 14, Mark 6, Luke 9
He replied, “You give them something to eat.”
But they said, “We have no more than five loaves of bread and two fish—unless we go and buy food for all these people.”
Luke 9:13 CEB
Jesus had to be disappointed in the response from the disciples. After all they had already witnessed. After all they had already done. The couldn't see the opportunity before them.
How often we must disappoint Jesus, when all we can see is scarcity.
How often we fail to see the abundant possibilities that are in front of us.
How many times have we missed the chance to "feed five thousand" because we refused to act - only seeing our limits and missing the possibilities of what we could with Jesus.
Remove the blindfold and see the abundance in your life today.
