Jesus Feeding The 5000 People

Today at prayer we pondered the gospel story of Jesus feeding the 5000 people with fish and loaves.  Our question was: “What is a time when you were helped by someone who saw a need within you, or a time when you saw a need in someone else and responded to it.”  We had a gentle giant, a young man with serious mental issues who responded to the question in this way: “We need to pray for wisdom for those who lead our city, our state and our nation.  They need to know how to help the people in their care, and we have to support them with our help and our prayers.”  This man is deeply spiritual and a serious prayer. -Br.
