Poverty

Five loaves and two fish. What we have and who we are might well seem quite inadequate in the face of the tasks that present themselves. Our poverty and limitation is only part of the picture. The other part of the picture is the Lord’s compassion and his power. Even a broken pen can write great poetry. Our feelings of inadequacy are really only part of the picture.
