Evening: Psalm 51; John 6:1-15
Someone has suggested that, when Jesus fed the 5000, the miracle was that a young boy’s generosity inspired a tsunami of generosity. Others shared their food too, so all were fed. We need not insist on some greater miracle. Can you imagine a greater miracle than the 1% who ‘own’ 82% of the world’s wealth, or the 42 individuals who hold more wealth than the world’s poorest 50% … sharing it!? In response to a miracle like that, we would just marvel and give thanks. Giving generously out of your abundance helps others, but it also satisfies your own soul.
