As for the loaves and fishes, I know that people have debated how the small amount of food that the disciples had could feed the masses. Some people think that possibly not everyone who followed Jesus that day went empty handed. There may have been people who had food for themselves, but not having an abundance, they were not about to share. When the disciples passed out the bread and fish, this could have gotten the crowd to give of their own food. Whether we believe in the strictest form of the miracle, or the explanation I put forth, it was something that changed the people one way or another.
And to tie this to action today, if we think that we can't help the poor because we don't have enough money or time, we should know that if EVERYONE gives a little, then together with the Lord and other parishioners we can do mighty things.
