Recline

John 6:1-15
{ THE SEED } What comes to mind when you read this ordinary word?

recline

{ THE SPROUT } How does the word change when part of the Gospel phrase?

those who were reclining

{ THE PLANT } How is God speaking to you today?

Then Jesus took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed them to those who were reclining, and also as much of the fish as they wanted.

{ THE BEFORE } Does God’s message change knowing the Gospel setting?

Jesus went across the Sea of Galilee. A large crowd followed Him, because they saw the signs He was performing on the sick.

{ THE AFTER } Does God’s message change knowing the Gospel conclusion?

When the people saw the sign he had done, they said, “This is truly the Prophet, the one who is to come into the world.” Since Jesus knew that they were going to come and carry Him off to make Him king, He withdrew again to the mountain alone.
