Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. 

Luke 6:38

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, ²⁰ and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.

Matthew 28:19-20

Multiplication of the nshima and cabbage...

I had been in Zambia almost three months. I was on my third trip deep into the bush of Africa when I witnessed a miracle straight from the Bible. 

I was in an area named Saala in the Musukotwane Chiefdom with my team from Overland Missions. We decided to end the week with a big finale, and held a soccer match and community meal on the same day. 

The soccer match was busy with adults' cheers and children's laughter. After the makuah (translated:white people) lost miserably to the local Zambians, we gathered everyone together. My friend shared a simple Gospel message then invited the group to have supper with us.

-The whole week spent in Saala, we invited everyone we came across to come to this community meal. We asked that they bring their own relish (cabbage, chicken, goat or something similar), and we would provide the nshima (Zambian staple food, made from maize and similar to mashed potatoes). So, we brought with us enough nshima to feed around 200 people, but only 7 cabbages (mainly for our team to eat).-

Everyone then made their way from the soccer field to our campsite for supper. We had several Zambian women that volunteered to help us cook and serve the nshima. As soon as the first batch was ready we began dishing it out to people. I quickly realized that no one had brought their own relish... So we started to serve the cabbage we had brought with us. Each member on the team prayed fervently for The Lord to somehow stretch the meal so everyone could be fed. 

Soon, people began coming up for seconds. However, the cabbage never ran out. At one point, one of our translators told me "everyone has been fed, they are all satisfied". This is when I realized, not only did the cabbage never run out, but we only used half of the nshima we brought. 

We had over 200 people come to that community meal. They not only ate supper, but had seconds. Over 200 people were fed from only 7 cabbages and one bag of mealie meal (which should only feed 100 people at the most). 

It was a miracle. God multiplied our food, just like when Jesus fed the 5000 and the 3000. Miracles still happen today, because God is the same yesterday, today and forever! Amen!
