Do you know what Jesus did just before He miraculously fed over 5,000 people with a little boy’s sack lunch? …Matthew 14:19 says that He looked up to Heaven…and gave thanks. Jesus took 5 small loaves of bread and 2 fish from a child’s lunch… and he prayed, and then He broke the bread… and it kept breaking and breaking and feeding and feeding.

It was only after He prayed that God did immeasurably more than anybody could have asked or imagined. It was after that prayer, that these people discovered God is big enough. 

In today’s episode, Gene reminds us that there is power in talking to God.
