“In the New Testament, the Savior performed a most
interesting miracle. With just a few fish and a few loaves of bread, the Savior
fed 5,000. I have read this account many times, but there is a part of that
experience that now has great meaning to me. After the Savior fed 5,000, He
asked His disciples to gather up the leftovers, which filled twelve baskets. I
have wondered why the Savior took the time to do that. It has become clear to
me that one lesson we can learn from that occasion was this: He could feed 5,000
and there were leftovers. ‘My grace is sufficient for all men.’ The Savior’s
redeeming and healing power can cover any sin, wound, or trial—no matter how
large or how difficult—and there are leftovers. His grace is sufficient. With
that knowledge, we can move forward with faith, knowing the Savior stands,
inviting us to come unto Him.” - Elder Brent H. Nielson
