A Boy Shares His Lunch
Read the Story
A big crowd followed Jesus. They were hungry. A boy had five small loaves of bread and two fish.
Jesus took the bread and thanked God. He gave the food to the people. Everyone ate all they wanted! There were twelve baskets left over.
That night, Jesus walked on the water to His friends in a boat. He said, It is I. Do not be afraid. Jesus said, I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to Me will never be hungry.
