The disciples begin this gospel passage focused on the scarcity of resources at hand to satisfy the hunger of the large crowd that has followed Jesus up the mountain. They discount the rations of five loaves and two fish as worthless in the face of the overwhelming need in front of them. Once again, this time in a miracle, we see the very small becoming very great.
We bring to the Eucharist the little that we have, all the fragments of our inadequacies, our successes and failures, our hopes and fears. We offer them to God with the fruits of the earth and the work of human hands, and these small gifts are transformed and offered back to us as a gift of Jesus’s sacramental Body and Blood, into whose life we are gathered. This is eucharistia, thanksgiving for God’s abundant and eternal generosity. Excerpt from Living Liturgy 2021

An act of Spiritual Communion: My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.
