(About five thousand men were there.) But he said to his disciples, “Have them sit down in groups of about fifty each.”
Thought of the day….
Five thousand men! Wow! Can you just see that many men hungry to hear the word of God! Several years ago I went to a ‘Men at The Cross’ event in Dallas, Texas. There were probably one thousand men present in the assembly. As we began worship and hearing God’s word it was amazing to see hundreds of men stand to there feet and surrender themselves to God. You could see the passion and love of God on the expression of there faces. We as men tend to hold things inside and resist fully surrendering to God. When they do as they did at the men at the cross event or in the above verse it is not only amazing to us but it is what God expects from us.
Today I ask, are you willing to surrender to God?
