MAY GOD SATISFY YOU

(John 6:1-15)
We've got a God who thinks about
us. In Jesus Christ we see a Saviour who cares about what is lacking in us and
wants to fill us with our needs. He knows what we feel even before we express
it.
In the Gospel of today, He saw
the multitude coming to Him and immediately thought of how to feed them. He
makes the plans. He wants each and everyone of us to have that readily
hospitable spirit and outreaching mentality. He got His disciples involved to
start thinking along the same direction with Him. They showed how impossible it
is to get even a little for these people. But Jesus manifested how possible it
is to feed them all and still gather enough remnant after.
What is the desire of your
heart, Child of God? Come to Jesus with them. Carry them to Jesus in prayers.
Men may think it is impossible. Before God, nothing is impossible. Let us learn
to go to Jesus, let us learn to assist one another for God's sake. Let us feel
people's hunger for knowledge, for peace, for love, for justice, for
employment, for deliverance, for healing, for forgiveness for XYZ.
The Lord satisfies us in the Holy
Eucharist, in the Scriptures, through our personal relationship with Him and
one another. May God grant those unspoken words of your heart and give you the
grace to come to the aid of people even when they don't ask.
LET US PRAY
Heavenly Father, thank You for
the love with which You nourish and satisfy us in Christ Your Beloved Son.
Grant our innermost heart desires. Help us to help each other in our own
various capacities. Bless Your word in our hearts through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
God bless your Friday (Easter,
Week 2)
Rev Fr Julian O Ekeh
