As the people gather to celebrate Passover, they remember God’s incredible miracles in leading the Israelites from captivity to freedom, including the miraculous provision of manna that fed them daily in the wilderness. But had they become so accustomed to waiting on miracles that they overlooked the abundance right in front of them?

In John 6, Jesus hears Peter and Andrew’s news that they’ve only found 5 loaves and 2 fish—and that’s enough for Him. Rather than waiting for divine intervention from the heavens, Jesus reveals the miracles around us. Through this powerful story, He teaches us that true deliverance comes when we stop asking for more and begin finding joy and contentment in what God has already given.

Join us as we explore how this perspective can reshape our understanding of abundance, gratitude, and the miracles already present in our lives.
