Saturday, June 17th
A great
crowd had gathered and had nothing
to eat. So Jesus called His Disciples
and said to them, " I feel sorry
for all these people………...Then
he instructed the crowd to sit down…..took
the seven Loaves after giving thanks
, broke and handed it to His Disciples
to distribute . Over the few small
fish He said a blessing.
The four thousand were satisfied and
seven basketfuls
Mark
8:1-9
There is more that enough in the
world the Father created for fulfilment
and joy. The Father's children have
the privilege and solemn duty to
share the necessities and richness
of the earth so that none go hungry.
It is a solemn duty on all mankind.
They are under serious judgement
who have plenty while other starve.
And so it is with the richness
of the spiritual life: each child
of the Father has his potential
to be fed and watered by knowledge
and the right response to circumstance,
by receiving and giving love, by
faithfulness to the Father's loving
purpose, by receiving my work and
my presence.
Our Holy Spirit, present now in
the hearts and minds of countless
thousands the world over, will be
enabled to impart new life and power
by the desire and commitment of
the faithful to wake into consciousness
and activity the souls of the sleeping
and the wayward. Pray without ceasing,
and be faithful.
