Love’s economy

 


Mark 8:1-4

In those days when there was again a great crowd without anything to eat, he called his disciples and said to them, “I have compassion for the crowd, because they have been with me now for three days and have nothing to eat. If I send them away hungry to their homes, they will faint on the way—and some of them have come from a great distance.” His disciples replied, “How can one feed these people with bread here in the desert?”


When compassion is not enough

When thoughts and prayers seem inadequate

What miracles might we see

And what part are we being called to play 

in making a difference?

When we pray for others to bring solutions

What is our awareness 

of the ways that we are enabled

to be an answer to prayer?

Like finding bread in the desert

opening our hands and hearts

makes all difference 

in feeding the world

with the language of love

An offering 

that will be enough

in the economy of God
