A Few Small Fish

“A Few Small Fish” is the title of a music CD just released by a good friend of ours – Michele Womble. Joey Womble (husband of Michele) and I were good friends at Georgia Tech and we’ve kept in touch over the years. The Lord called Joey and I into His Service at about the same time. He led Joey to a frigid place – Novosibirsk, Siberia – to help build and strengthen the church there. He and Michele and their family have been there about 17 cumulative years now.

After Shannon and I listened to the songs, here is what I wrote:

The first song – A Few Small Fish – captures what I feel sometimes in ministry:
“And sometimes the work seems long – and sometimes it seems so hard . . . and I can’t see how what I am – could ever go very far – could make a difference for You

But You fed the masses with broken bread and a few small fish – You’re still feeding the masses – with broken bread”

It’s the idea that Jesus IS the bread that is so core to “doing” anything for others (and for Him). He’s not waiting on me to deliver a miracle; just wants me to believe in Him as the miracle and take faith steps to deliver The Miracle.

“Hard to Enter” is a good song to – helps me preach the gospel to myself – very needed reminder.
