SUPPLY

DOROTHY COREAUX VOORSANGER

Christ Jesus demonstrated for all mankind the spiritual nature of supply when he fed the multitude with seven loaves and a few fishes. In the fifteenth chapter of Matthew we read (verses 36, 37): "He took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake them, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude. And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets full." The infinite Love which Christ Jesus manifested enabled him to see beyond the finite form of bread and fish to unlimited, unfailing, infinite Truth, which satisfies. This discernment enabled him to bless all who were seeking the truth.

Mary Baker Eddy writes (Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 206), "In the scientific relation of God to man, we find that whatever blesses one blesses all, as Jesus showed with the loaves and the fishes,—Spirit, not matter, being the source of supply."
