The feeding of the 5,000 reveals how God's mathematics work differently than ours. When Jesus received news of John the Baptist's death, He moved from grief to compassion, seeing the crowd's needs despite His own pain. The disciples only had five barley loaves and two fish from a boy's lunch, but Jesus multiplied this humble offering to feed thousands with twelve baskets left over. This miracle teaches us that God doesn't need our abundance to work miracles - He specializes in taking small, faithful offerings and creating extraordinary impact. The key is surrendering what we have right now, not waiting for better circumstances or more resources.
