John describes the miracle of Jesus feeding a large group of followers. John indicated 5,000 men. We don’t know how many women or children were present. I suspect there might be some exaggeration here.
Although Jesus knew what he was going to do, he still asks Philip to give an opinion of what could be done. It is a great teaching tool where the teacher highlights the student’s understanding before the teaching.
John is making an important point that I want to draw your attention to in this reflection. The point has to do with ones perspective of what Jesus can and will do in our lives. Our perspectives can either enhance or inhibit the course of our lives.
Are we open to allow God to surprise us? When an event or situation does not turn out the way we wanted or expected are we willing to hold back judgement and explore what God could be directing us to do. Are we open to change and to broaden our perspective of God and His role in our life?
