Will you feed them?
Compassion moved Jesus to tell His disciples to feed the multitude. His heart was inclined toward other people to the point that it did not matter what was instantly available, they simply needed to be fed. Jesus was focused on the people; the disciples were focused on supplies.
Where is your focus? Are you focused on the people or your lack? Jesus knew that the lack would be supplied so long as His focus remained upon the people. When all was said and done, seven baskets of fragments were leftover.
Some things to ponder:
1. Do you expend more energy counting ﾓloaves and fishesﾔ than in creative ways to use them helping others?
2. What can you do today to become more focused on other people?

About this Plan
You've been there. Suddenly a person near you comes into focus that is obviously in need of help. Quickly your mind begins to rattle off your options - shift your gaze; turn around; walk away; ignore them. But what if they are too close to ignore? What then? That is what this little devotional is all about. What to do when someone in need is too close to ignore.
