Today, what do your 5 loaves and 2 fish look like to you? Is it your amateur skills, inexperience on the job, or anything else that feels insufficient? One thing we know: You can bring your little to Jesus, involve Him in what you\u2019re facing, and He\u2019ll multiply it beyond your wildest dreams!<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-video fusion-youtube\" style=\"max-width:600px;max-height:360px;\"><div class=\"video-shortcode\"><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lapuL5kWC2M?wmode=transparent&autoplay=0\" width=\"600\" height=\"360\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-5\"><h3><strong>Gideon\u2019s 300 defeat countless Midianites<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Meet the original 300 in the Bible\u2014Gideon\u2019s army of men who were vastly outnumbered against their enemies, the Midianites. Can you believe that Gideon HIMSELF also felt like the weakest in his tribe? Yet God called him a mighty man of valour, and told him, \u201cGo in this might of yours, and you shall save Israel from the hand of the Midianites.\u201d (Judg. 6:14) And save them, God did! Friend, it\u2019s powerful to acknowledge your weaknesses and not-enoughs\u2014but ALSO that God is your strength in every one of them.

But as you can see above, God worked an amazing miracle with even the little this widow had (full story in 2 Kings 4:1\u20137!). Today, He\u2019s ALSO able to work with your skill\/money\/resources, however small you might think they are.

But who would\u2019ve imagined that the most humiliating and painful way to die (in Roman times) would become the most powerful and only way to save mankind? Jesus, in dying on the cross, was bearing the punishment for OUR sins. Not to mention opening the floodgates of God\u2019s blessings into our lives (see Rom. 8:32), AND altering the eternal homes of all who believe in Him from hell to heaven? Somebody give us an AMEN.
