Faith like a child

Five loaves and two fishes – Corrine May


A little boy of thirteen was on his way to school

He heard a crowd of people laughing and he went to take a look

Thousands were listening to the stories of one man

He spoke with such wisdom, even the kids could understand


The hours passed so quickly, the day turned to night

Everyone was hungry but there was no food in sight

The boy looked in his lunchbox at the little he had

He wasn’t sure what good it’d do, there were thousands to be fed


But he saw the twinkling eyes of Jesus

The kindness in His smile

And the boy cried out

With the trust of a child

He said:


“Take my five loaves and two fishes

Do with it as you will

I surrender

Take my fears, my inhibitions

All my burdens, my ambitions

You can use it all to feed them all”


I often think about that boy when I’m feeling small

And I worry that word I do means nothing at all


But every single tear I cry is a diamond in His hands

And every door that slams in my face, I will offer up in prayer


So I’ll give you every breath that I have

Oh Lord, you can work miracles

All that you need is my “Amen”


So take my five loaves and two fishes

Do with it as you will

I surrender

Take my fears my inhibitions

All my burdens, my ambitions

You can use it all

I hope it’s not too small


I trust in you

I trust in you


So take my five loaves and two fishes

Do with it as you will

I surrender

Take my fears and my inhibitions

All my burdens, my ambitions

You can use it all

No gift is too small….

The faith of a child – the prayer that comes from his heart…


“I trust in you… I trust in you.”

Everyday’s a gift. Is it not? =)

Sheesh. How true this is: one should never work together with a sibling/close relative or friend. It strains/sours/damages the relationship.


I’m feeling it. Oh dear…

The brickwalls are there for a reason.



FW, that’s very true. Guess we have to climb over them ya? Heh. And the occasional skirting of the walls too! =P

On a happy note, your Oceanus is on the way! =)
