When my lecturer ask me to come up with an article about fish falling from the sky, to be honest I really do not know what to say or an idea of what to write about, but I took a step further, and took it from a different point of view, fish falling from the sky is like blessing to the needed. In these cases we should look at Matthew 14:13-21 “You Give Them Something to Eat” Here we have the famous story called “the feeding of the 5,000.” I’m not sure why it is called that because the final sentence of the story states: “And those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.” With the women and children there must have been at least 15,000 people.
The point is that many people were fed that day. There are a number of ways of interpreting the story. First, it’s a miracle. Jesus takes five loaves and two fish and turns them into enough food to feed the masses. It is thought that since Jesus is God incarnate the act is well within the realm of possibility. In real terms this is an easy solution. If we could perform miracles we could feed the world today in a snap. The point is, if fish could fall from the sky every now and then, we could feed the whole country and the poor will not go hungry.

The residents of a small outback in Australian town have been left speechless after fish began falling from the sky. Hundreds of spangled perch bombarded the 650 residents of Lajamanu, shocking local Christine Balmer, who was walking home when the strange 'weather' started. She said: 'These fish fell in their hundreds and hundreds all over the place. The locals were running around everywhere picking them up. Others say that that the miracle came in the immediate willingness of the people to share their food.
