Now when Jesus heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat to a desolate place by himself. But when the crowds heard it, they followed him on foot from the towns. Matthew 14:13
 
Jesus learns the devastating news that John the Baptist was murdered; his head presented on a platter. The life and sacrifice of an unwavering disciple is no joke.
 
Jesus – fully God and fully man – grieves and withdraws to a desolate place to be alone with His Father.

The crowds don’t care about Jesus’ grieving or privacy; they want this healing they have heard so much about. Despite His pain, Jesus has compassion on the masses coming to Him. He heals them.

The problem is that the crowds have followed Him to this out-of-the-way place where there is no food and no place to get it. Despite watching Jesus perform countless miracles (even healing in this place), the disciples have no clue how to feed the people and want Jesus to send them all away.

Jesus says to His disciples, “YOU give them something to eat.”
 
They look around at the meager supply of food available – five loaves and two fish. Enough for a family maybe, but not the thousands that have gathered. How in the world can such a small portion solve this enormous problem, they murmur among themselves.

Jesus says, “Bring them to me.”
 
You only have a tiny fraction of what you need? Remember past provisions and bring it to Jesus!

Question: What in your life feels impossible right now? What small portions can you bring to Jesus?
