Listen "Feed the Crowd, 08-02-2020"
Episode Synopsis
http://www.usccb.org/bible/readings/080220.cfm
Jesus saw a large crowd. I wonder if we do? The large crowd is not limited to the people in this church. We, as disciples of Christ are called to bring this gospel to the large crowd out in the world. While it seems to us that the gospel is currently “out of season,” we must never forget that everyone is precious to the Lord; He wants to reach all and feed them with His grace, mercy, truth, and love.
It is too easy to lament the condition of the world and, like the Apostles, to feel overwhelmed. Jesus says, “Just bring me what you have and let’s get started.” The conversion of the whole world will begin with me, with my meager loaves and fishes.
Jesus will surely multiply them; He will not fail. Already there is renewal evident in the Church, through a faithful remnant willing to bring their loaves and fishes (some of the things mentioned above and more besides). They are bringing them to Jesus and He is multiplying them. Renewal is happening; signs of spring are evident in the Church.
