What lesson do you think Jesus was teaching His disciples when He fed the multitude with five loaves and two fish?
Jesus looked up to heaven, blessed, broke and gave the loaves to the disciples. I believe He was showing His disciples that with God, All things are possible. He was feeding their faith.

There is a reminder of the Eucharist. Which is the greatest miracle? the feeding of the 5000 with so little or the Resurrectiion and the Feeding of the billions through the centuries through his own Blood and Body? Faith is the lesson that shines through both...how is it possible? a bewilderment that will be none compared to the one after the Resurrection. Or that should have been so. It was but not immediately as the disciples did not believe immediately in the Resurrection. The Jesus of these `tangible` miracles was the Jesus they relied upon. Thomas asking to touch his rib... Blessed are those who saw and believe but all the more blessed those who did not see and believed..Think of what those 5000 said about that to so many others. A sense of wonder and expectation that spraed like waves and prepared the ground for the greatest miracle.

Jesus was teaching His Disciples the compassion and the love to share the little we have since our faith can make the little we have greater as portrayed in the miracle of the multiplied five loaves and two fish.

All we need is Jesus to fulfill our needs. If we follow the Lord, He will never turn us away. The Lord will provide for all who follow Him. The miracle by Jesus to take small things, 5 loaves and 2 fish, to do an impossible thing, feeding 5, 000 and showing immense power of God.

Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand

Now when Jesus heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat, to a deserted place apart. When the multitudes heard it, they followed him on foot from the cities.
Jesus went out, and he saw a great multitude. He had compassion on them, and healed their sick. When evening had come, his disciples came to him, saying, "This place is deserted, and the hour is already late. Send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves food."
But Jesus said to them, "They don't need to go away. You give them something to eat."
They told him, "We only have here five loaves and two fish."
He said, "Bring them here to me." He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass; and he took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, broke and gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples gave to the multitudes. They all ate, and were filled. They took up twelve baskets full of that which remained left over from the broken pieces. Those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.
