Have you ever had one of those days that you felt like you had very little or actually absolutely nothing to offer God? I know some days it feels like we have nothing to give, but we just might be surprised at what we actually have to offer.
Just look at what God did with a young boys lunch. He took a small lunch and multiplied it enough to feed thousands of people. (Read about it in John, chapter 6) Have you ever wondered what may have happened if that young boy had not offered his lunch? Even if that HAD happened, God would have found another way, but then the young boy would have missed out on being a part of the miracle.
Sometimes what I have to offer seems insignificant or too small to even matter, but like the young boy, if I do not offer what I have (small or large) I just may be missing out on being part of a miracle that God is preparing. God doesn't NEED my small token of something but He WANTS it!
We all have something small to give, God doesn't need it but He wants us to be part of a miracle. I am so thankful not only for the young boys lunch but that God takes what we have to offer and He multiplies it. How awesome that what I see as insignificant, God sees as miracle material.

True, He don't need it but He wants that He may add it our account :)
This really encouraged me this morning. I feel that my talents and effectiveness are so limited sometimes. There are times when I can't even think what to pray, but God knows our hearts and His love flows through us just as we are. Thank you and bless you today.
Oh I think you are soo right. We "think" we are doing something for Him. But the reality is He is the one BLESSING us. Have a wonderful day Laurie..HUGS
love that God doesn't need it you are so right he can do whatever is needed by himself just take a look around but he loves us so much that he opens doors and opportunities are found through his love to help others
