Whose Hands?
John 6:1-15

If I might paraphrase what some unknown writer penned a few years back: “A basketball in my hands is worth about $50. A basketball in LeBron James’ hands is worth about $100 million. It depends whose hands it’s in. A baseball in my hands is worth about $10. A baseball in former New York Yankees’ third baseman Alex Rodriguez’s hands is worth $30 million. It depends whose hands it’s in. A golf club might be worth $50 in my hands. In Phil Michelson’s hands it’s worth 100s of millions. It depends whose hands it’s in. A rod in my hands will keep away a wild animal. A rod in Moses’ hands will part the mighty sea. It depends whose hands it’s in. A sling shot in my hands is a kid’s toy. A sling shot in David’s hand is a mighty weapon. It depends whose hands it’s in. Two fish and 5 loaves of bread in my hands is a couple of fish sandwiches. Two fish and 5 loaves of bread in God’s hands will feed thousands. It depends whose hands it’s in.”
