You can find Calcutta anywhere in the world. You only need two eyes to see.

Everywhere in the world, there are people that are not loved, people that are not wanted nor desired, people that no one will

help, people that are pushed away or forgotten. And this is the greatest poverty.

- St. Teresa of Calcutta

OUR DEEPEST NEEDS The word of God serves up a tremendous feast for us today. Isaiah beckons all who hunger and thirst to come to the Lord for satisfaction. The psalmist cries out, “The hand of the Lord feeds us; he answers all our needs” (Psalm 145:16). Saint Paul tells us that nothing can separate us from the love of God. Finally, in the Gospel, we hear the story of the miraculous feeding of over five thousand people from a mere five loaves and two fish. Most of us have our material needs met on a day-to-day basis. These scriptures, nevertheless, have much to say to the contemporary believer. We must ask ourselves, “Where are my deepest hungers? Where are my thirsts?” After material needs are satisfied and, in some cases, over-satisfied, many people still experience a deep longing for spiritual balance and well-being. As the loaves and fish are multiplied in today’s Gospel, perhaps our prayer can be a longing for the satisfaction of the deepest needs that only God can fill. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

God, our Father, Creator and Lord of the Uni-verse, you have set the earth on its foundation and all the elements of nature obey your command. We humbly beseech you to keep us safe from all dan-gers and calm the storms that threaten us. May we be secure in your loving protection and serve you always with grateful hearts. We ask this through our Lord, Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit one God, forever and ever.
