They replied, "Seven loaves, and a few small fish."

In Matthew 15:34 Jesus asked the disciples "How much bread do you have?"  they replied, "sevel loaves, and a small few fish." 


WHAT?  ONLY this to feed the multitudes, the thousands that are hungry?  The thousands that are seeking something from a man who brings hope for a future, dignity to the poor, health to the sick, peace to the hurting?

The other day, one of the LAMb missionaries posted a blog with all of the needs that they have facing them personally and the LAMb team in general.  Surgeries, home for transitional teens, Dayspring sponsorship's, orphan sponsors, senior sponsors, training supplies, travel needs, the list goes on.  Want to see what I mean:  Act of Kindness.  Take a look.  It can feel overwhelming.  But the needs are legitimate.  Can you imagine how much this weighs on the hearts of the LAMb team to want to help, to want to make things just a bit better, to bless those they come in contact with?  It takes support.  Support from those of us here in the comforts of our North America homes where we have SOOOOO much more than those in these third world countries, those who live with unstable governments, those who see there is so much more to be done in their own country if only they had a little help to get started.

Today I was talking with a friend about Randy and I going to an adoption conference this weekend to represent LAMb.  My heart is heavy with the burden to find support.  It hurts not knowing how to get the word out.  My prayer each time we do this is to reach a heart of an individual, a pastor, someone that sees that they can do something to help support a missionary team and make a difference in the life of someone whom they may never meet.  She mentioned that she wishes and prays for the day when they have the money to support missions.  I realized instantly that we so often don't even realize that $10 a month can make a BIG difference.  Why?  Because one $10's here and another here comes to $20.  Maybe someone can donate $20 a month or more and then the support goes up!  We start to meet the needs that we mention because one person realized that their $10 DOES make a difference.  Look at the boy and the seven loaves of bread and a few fishes . . . Jesus didn't scoff and such a small amount when faced with the thousands . . . He multiplied the givings and fed the thousands.  God still works in the land of miracles.  He hasn't stopped since Jesus went to be in heaven with Him.

I want to get the word out that $10 a month to help an orphan, senior or a family in need will grow.  It will grow and those who give will be blessed.  God doesn't look at the amount, He looks at the giver and the deepest part of their heart and blesses them for helping those in need.

Please DON'T EVER think that $10 can do nothing . . . if ONLY you knew what God can do with that $10!!!!!

Be blessed my friend!
