He can do it all for you

Today, during lecture, I realised that my all time favourite uniball figno 0.38mm blue pen was running out of ink. There was only like 2mm worth of ink left inside and decided not to use it anymore to copy down notes in lectures cause I only had that one blue pen with me then.

Then, when I reached home, I decided to write my notes using that same pen since I had the refills at home. I started writing my notes and before I knew it, I'd already written one whole page of notes with it. And I guess only bel would know how densely condensed my words are on that one sheet of A4 paper. I was amazed. There was still 1mm of ink left inside that pen even after I wrote that much words. Then, it struck me. That if the ink can still keep flowing even though there's 1mm left, that God can use whatever that we have, no matter how little and turn it around into something that WILL flow non-stop and never end.

From there, I was reminded once again, of the five loaves and four loaves thingy. Cause it reminded me that once I commit something into His hands, He'd multiply them.

Matthew 14:17-21
"And they said to Him, “We have here only five loaves and two fish.” He said, “Bring them here to Me.” Then He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass. And He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed and broke and gave the loaves to the disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitudes. So they all ate and were filled, and they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments that remained. Now those who had eaten were about five thousand men, besides women and children."

Mark 8:5-10
"
"How many loaves do you have?" Jesus asked.
"Seven," they replied.

He told the crowd to sit down on the ground. When he had taken the seven loaves and given thanks, he broke them and gave them to his disciples to set before the people, and they did so. They had a few small fish as well; he gave thanks for them also and told the disciples to distribute them. The people ate and were satisfied. Afterward the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. About four thousand men were present. And having sent them away, he got into the boat with his disciples and went to the region of Dalmanutha."


Pastor once mentioned that the reason why Jesus fed 4000 men with 7 loaves and fed even more men and women with five loaves, was implying that the BIGGER your problem is, the easier it is for God to solve it!

I can't help but fall in love with Jesus more and more each day as I find out and am reminded of His love towards me from small little things like a pen that I've used for many years.

He's just amazingly amazing.
