Five loaves and two fishes



A little boy of thirteen was on his way to school
He heard a crowd of people laughing and he went to take a look
Thousands were listening to the stories of one man
He spoke with such wisdom, even the kids could understand

The hours passed so quickly, the day turned to night
Everyone was hungry but there was no food in sight
The boy looked in his lunchbox at the little that he had
He wasn't sure what good it'd do, there were thousands to be fed

But he saw the twinkling eyes of Jesus
The kindness in His smile
And the boy cried out
With the trust of a child
he said:

"Take my five loaves and two fishes
Do with it as you will
I surrender
Take my fears and my inhibitions
All my burdens, my ambitions
You can use it all to feed them all"

I often think about that boy when I'm feeling small
And I worry that the work I do means nothing at all
But every single tear I cry is a diamond in His hands
And every door that slams in my face, I will offer up in prayer

So I'll give you every breath that I have
Oh Lord, you can work miracles
All that you need is my "Amen"

So take my five loaves and two fishes
Do with it as you will
I surrender
Take my fears and my inhibitions
All my burdens, my ambitions
You can use it all
I hope it's not too small

I trust in you
I trust in you

So take my five loaves and two fishes
Do with it as you will
I surrender
Take my fears and my inhibitions
All my burdens, my ambitions
You can use it all
No gift is too small

Sebuah lagu yang diadaptasi dari cerita di Alkitab, Ketika Tuhan memberi makan 5000 orang hanya dengan 5 roti dan 2 ikan..
well yap tentu hampir kita semua pernah mendengar cerita ini, tapi saya pribadi sangat diberkati dengan video dan lyric dari lagu ini ..
prespective yang sedikit berbeda dari cerita atau firman yang sering kita dengar di Gereja atau sekolah minggu!
Terutama saya sangat terberkati dengan lyric di bagian akhir chorus lagu ini

Take my fears and my inhibitions
All my burdens, my ambitions
You can use it all
No gift is too small

"my ambitions" .. sedikit merinding mendengar kata-kata ini .. muncul pemikiran sanggupkah aku mengucapkannya??
seringkali kita berdoa berserah kepada Tuhan sebatas "Tuhan kuserahkan masa depan'ku,pekerjaan,study,masa muda,kesusahaan,etc.. tapi toloong yg "ini" jangan yaak ,klo enggak elo.. gue end!:p .."

apakah ambisi kita hari ini? pengen sukses,kaya raya,Pengen Jadi'an ama si dia,pengen ini pengen itu ? well saya rasa gak ada yg salah dengan itu semua .. tapi sudahkah engkau pastikan bahwa itu ada di dalam rancangan Tuhan? :)
Pastikan kita benar2 memberikan 5 roti dan 2 ikan kita ..
Pasti bagi anak kecil itu 5 roti dan 2 ikannya itu sangat berharga,hal yang sangat gak mungkin banget buat dia serahkan ke orang lain .. tapi ketika ia memandang Yesus Iman muncul dari dalam dirinya!
so apapun 5 roti dan 2 ikanmu hari ini serahkan pada Yesus .. NO GIFT IS TOO SMALL! Just trust in Him..
GBu all.. :)
