Philip made the same mistake most of us make. He got caught up in thinking about the problem. He was figuring out how many people there were, how much money was in the treasury, and how much bread costs. He was so preoccupied with his own doubts and questions that the problems were speaking to him more loudly than The LORD. As a result, he answered Jesus without really listening to Him.
We all do that at times, don’t we? We get so focused on our problems that we’re not able to hear the proper questions and answers from The WORD of God. We end up trying to figure out what we’re going to do instead of looking to God for what He can do!
