2009 CHRISTMAS PARTY

PASASASALAMAT:FROM ME33

In today’s Gospel, Jesus miraculously multiplies fish and bread to feed thousands of people. Jesus does not turn them away. Instead He says to His disciples, “Bring them here to me.” It’s almost like He’s saying, “Don’t be scared! I have more than enough love in me to feed all these people!” So what makes a meal special? It’s not the price tag. It’s the love.

With whom have you been sharing meals lately? Make meals with people an opportunity to share God’s generosity. Lord, let my love nourish other people.

Is your Christianity confined to your prayer room? There’s work to do outside. What is the Lord asking you to denounce to bring your world back to His love and justice?

Jesus, You wept for Your people while I don’t seem to care much about the society You placed me in. Give me the courage and wisdom to denounce the evil in the place where I should be the salt. Amen.
