5 loaves and 2 fishes

Found this in my sister's laptop... I never really saw it this way before

5 Loaves & 2 Fishes

little
boy of thirteen

was on his way to
school

He heard a crowd of people laughing

and he went to take a look

Thousands were listening

to the stories of one man

He spoke with such wisdom,

even the kids could understand


The hours passed so quickly

the day turned to night

Everyone was hungry

but there was no food in sight

The boy looked in his lunchbox

at the little that he had

He wasn't sure what good it'd do

there were thousands to be fed


But he saw the twinkling eyes of Jesus

the kindness in His smile

and the boy cried out

with the trust of a child

he said:


"Take my five loaves and two fishes

Do with it as you will I surrender

Take my fears and inhibitions

All my burdens, my ambitions

You can use it all

to feed them all"


I often think about that boy

when I'm feeling small

and I worry that the work I do

means nothing at all


But every single tear I cry

is a diamond in His hands

and every door that slams in my face

I will offer up in prayer


So I'll give you every breath that I have

Oh Lord, you can work miracles

All you need is my "Amen"


So Take my five loaves and two fishes

Do with it as you will

I surrender

Take my fears, my inhibitions

All my burdens, my ambitions

You can use it all

I hope it's not too small


I trust in you

I trust in you


So Take my five loaves and two fishes

Do with it as you will

I surrender

Take my fears, my inhibitions

All my burdens, my ambitions

You can use it all

no gift is too small




Just a little bit more... Just a little more faith.... Just a little more faith to trust Him

He gives the very best to those who leave the choice with Him

Trust Him.
