My pond is 1.25 acres with a maximum depth of 14'. My total well capacity is about 75 gpm. I have to run at least 18 gpm to raise my pond level even slightly. A pond with 14' max. depth should have an average depth of about 5 1/2 feet. This would give you about 12 acre-feet of water. This is about 4 million gallons. If you add 25 gpm that gives you around 36K gallons per day. This will gradually raise your water level in times of no rain. I'd seriously consider going with a larger pump so that you can deal with droughts more effectively.
