Then Jesus took the loaves, 

and after giving thanks he distributed them to those who were seated - so also with the fish, 

as much as they wanted.

John 6:11 CSB

Come on John, can't you tell us a bit more of how that all happened?

Did a stockpile of bread arrive?

Did Jesus feed everyone? All 10,000?

Did one person take a couple of loaves and pass one on, and still have two?

I want to know how miracles work.

Maybe because I want to reduce them to something I can understand, just like I try to make God small enough to understand sometimes. 

As someone (who was that?) once said if our God is small enough to understand, he's too small to worship.

Sometimes I wish he would work the miracles that I want. 

But if Yahweh did what I wanted, that would make Him smaller than me.

And He is not.

The scale of this miracle points us to our miracle working God, yet it's so personal, it points us to a God who loves us, who wants us to draw near. 

Sometimes, all I get to do is wonder, & worship.
