How full is your plate this morning?

Lord, we complain that we do not have enough, but help us to be mindful of the parable of the little boy with the five loaves and two fish, and how you blessed it and it multiplied to feed thousands. So too, if we ask your blessings on the little that we have, you will increase it to supply the needs of those around us. Your plate may be full to overflowing this morning, and it may not be what you wanted but be thankful, because someone else is waking up to an empty plate. Lord, give us grateful thankful hearts, and the mind to share with the less fortunate.
