Beloved: Gospel of John

God Source: Bigger Than You and Me

May 5, 2019

Please turn in your Bibles to John 6:1-15

Compassion + God’s leading = Effective Ministry.

But He answered, “You give them something to eat.” Mark 6:37

When they had all had enough to eat, He said to His disciples, “Gather the pieces that are left over. Let nothing be wasted.” 13 So they gathered them and filled 12 baskets with the pieces of the 5 barley loaves left over by those who had eaten. 14 After the people saw the sign Jesus performed, they began to say, “Surely this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.” 15 Jesus, knowing that they intended to come and make Him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by Himself. John 6:12-15
