Have you ever thought about the back story to some very interesting bits in the Bible? Do you create your own script, ask the questions and try to research the answers, or hold to the inviolability of God’s word and ignore the curiosity?
Please have an open mind as you partake of today’s Holy Nougat™
“Bring them here,” he said. Matthew 14:18 NLT (Jesus instructing the disciples to bring him the donated fish and bread)
How did the disciples know that one child was in possession of food? Was it a gift freely offered?
In light of their disbelief, why did the disciples mention the fish and bread?
How would you have responded as a
Disciple
Member of the crowd
Giver of such a valuable gift.
There is a sense in which our best offering to God will never be enough to impact the world on its own. But with Divine Mercy, that could change for the better. How open are we to sharing our resources with others?
Lord help us that our offering of ourselves would be acceptable to You as part of our prayer today. It could be the difference between life and death.
Thanks for joining in this Divine feast. May God’s grace continue to sustain you;.
In Christ
