Mark 6:30-44 often gets the (uninspired) title in English Bibles: ”Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand.”  And yes, this is a good heading for these verses, but there is a significant delay before we actually see Jesus feeding the five thousand.  Often life is like that.  We pray for a miracle and then there is a delay before we see it come to pass.  And this passage shows us some of the most common reasons for the delay, but we also learn something about Jesus in this particular delayed miracle and despite delays we know the miracle is coming.
