Potential (Day 5 of 7) from YouVersion, read by Andi and Brian Hale

Not quite enough, or is it?

Insecurity is something all of us deal with in some way or another. We all look around at other people, and at times, feel like we don’t measure up.

But here’s what you need to know:

You have everything you need to do what God needs you to do.

And here’s the lesson we can learn from the Bible story today: life’s not about what you have; it’s about what you let God have.

God will use whoever you are and whatever you have to do what He wants to do. He wants to use you. So, what do you have that God can use?

Where do you feel less than? Know that God can and will use that too.

What do you need to let God have? What do you need God to multiply in your life?

Let God have it all. Just watch and see what happens when you give it over to Him.

‘Lifting up his eyes, then, and seeing that a large crowd was coming toward him, Jesus said to Philip, “Where are we to buy bread, so that these people may eat?” Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread would not be enough for each of them to get a little.” One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him, “There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are they for so many?” Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, about five thousand in number. Jesus then took the loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed them to those who were seated. So also the fish, as much as they wanted. And when they had eaten their fill, he told his disciples, “Gather up the leftover fragments, that nothing may be lost.” So they gathered them up and filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves left by those who had eaten. He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he would do. ‘
