Great thoughts from Dallas Jenkins (Creator and Director of "The Chosen") at BYU yesterday:

Your job is not to feed the five thousand, it is only to provide the loaves and fish.  Whether in failure or success, the message is that same. 
He does ask that of us--to bring our loaves and fishes.  
He could have just waved his hand and the loaves and fish could have appeared out of nothing, but He does demand for us to participate.  
Do the thing we can do, and then He does the thing only He can do--the miracle part. 
He does involve us in the process.  Isn't that so gracious of Him? 
He does ask us to participate.  
Whether in failure of success, five loaves and two fish, when you hand that to Him and He deems it worthy of acceptance, the transaction is over. 
It's the five and two principle--you bring what you have, you give it to God, and let go. 
I implore you starting now, get to this place, this super power that comes when you give it up to God. 
It is not your job to feed the five thousand, it is only your job to bring the loaves and fish.
