The little boy broke his piggy bank, counted all of his money and ran to the pharmacy. There, he asked the pharmacist how much a miracle cost. Surprised, the pharmacist told the boy that she sold medication, not miracles. The boy burst out that his sister was in hospital and needed a miracle! A well-dressed man interjected, asking the boy how much money he had for this miracle. “Exactly 1 dollar and 12 cents” the boy answered softly while tears ran down his cheeks. The man then asked the boy if he could come to the hospital with him to visit his sick sister.

Shortly after, his sister went into surgery. Her brain tumor was removed and she made a full recovery. Little did the boy know, the man he had talked to that day was the director of the hospital. He had decided to privately pay for his sister’s surgery. So indeed, the boy had bought himself a miracle with all of his savings.. 1 dollar and 12 cents. 

When Jesus fed the 5000 people with only 5 loaves of bread and two fish, it was a little boy who had chosen to give everything he had. Jesus took the boy`s offering and exponentially multiplied it; performing a miracle.

Jesus replied, “They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat.”

Matthew 14:16

Where is God calling you to give what you have?
