23. III SAT of Dedication of the Church



Lk 9: 7-17: Jesus feeds the five thousands. Jesus gives thanks to the giver of all goods and they go forward to feed those who are hungry. The people who burn themselves out others are those who become bread. Jesus himself shows us the way. He himself became bread for others. In Jesus all men’s needs are supplied. There is hunger of the soul. There is in every man, sometimes at least, a longing to find something in which he may invest his life. It is this bread we find in Jesus in the Eucharist – ‘the bread of life’ to quench our hunger and thirst.
