“The disciples said to Him, “Where would we get so many loaves in this desolate place to satisfy such a large crowd?”  And Jesus said to them, “How many loaves do you have?” And they said, “Seven, and a few small fish” (Matthew 15:33-34).

We often think in what we call practical terms, limited by our understanding of how things work.  From nothing, the Lord created all things.  If He commands something to be done, it will be done.  Do not be limited by Your understanding, rather come into the reality that our Lord is more than able to do all things according to His will.  Be led by the Lord and not by the limitations of what you know.

Lord, without thinking it is a power You will give me, guide me to understand that You can do all things.  You can move mountains, heal any infirmity, and save us from eternal damnation.  In faith, guide me to live understanding that all things are in Your hands.  Help me to answer all questions that You give me, such as when You asked the disciples what they had, so that I see Your hand in all things.

Lord Jesus, help my unbelief.  I often stop short because I do not believe that You will do what You can do.  Help me to go forward even when I am doubting, so that I may see that You are the One who is acting.  Guide me in Your goodness to live out the Father’s will for my life.  Through all things help me to learn true obedience and humbly do all that You command.  Lead me today to live faithfully in the Father’s will.  Amen.
