How Many Loaves Do You Have

How many loaves do you have?
How much do you need?
How many loaves do you have?
Its time to plant a faith seed

Jesus took 7 loaves and fed a multitude
That doesn't seem possible but 
God possesses a miracle attitude
It was a symbolic gesture of the impossibility of God
It was a show of faith and belief a message 
Jesus needed to impart
Jesus had fed the people's hearts 
He fed their souls and also their minds
But if people are physically hungry 
then all that knowledge gets left behind

How many loaves do you have?
How much can you spare?
How many loaves do you have?
Is it enough to share?

To God it matters not how much you have
but are you willing to believe
That you only need to have a faith
the size of a mustard seed
God will replenish and increase
what little you possess
And as long as you're willing to share
it will be abundant and blessed

How many loaves do you have?
How much do you require?
Are you willing to give to the less fortunate
As God desires?

God simply wants us to believe
That if we trust in Him He'll supply all of our needs
God simply wants us to 
comprehend and understand 
That there's nothing we can't accomplish
as long as we cleave to His mighty hand

So how many loaves do you have?
It matters not in the least
If you trust in the Lord 
He'll take one loaf and make it a feast
