It's 8/2 and today's verse is from Mark 8:2, "I feel sorry for these people. They have been here with me for three days, and they have nothing left to eat. " NLT
How characteristic of Jesus to show compassion. He suddenly became concerned about the large number of people who had been with Him for three days and had run out of food. He was mindful that they would start on their way home and grow faint. This compassion led to Him making more than enough fish sandwiches for 4000 people out of a seven loaves of bread and a few small fish. This multiplication miracle was a result of the compassion of Christ. It was just one of many examples where Jesus cared about the needs of His people.
Jesus still cares about our needs. He also cares that we know Him, that we spend time with Him, listening to Him and getting to know Him and His ways. We will always witness His love when we spend time in His presence. It is there, that we will surely find our hunger satisfied by Him. He will always be more than enough for us. I'll pass on the fish sandwich. Just give me Jesus:-)
