The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (C)
Gospel text
Lk 9:11b-17
Lk 9:11b-17
Taking the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing over them, broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the crowd. They all ate and were satisfied.
Gospel's Commentary
Today we witness the miracle of the multiplication of loaves and fishes: it was a foreshadowing of the Eucharist. They all ate! They were satisfied! There was enough for all and left over! This is the Love of God: abundant until the Infinite.
- Centuries later, the generously sacrificed (and risen!) Body of Christ is still splitted and divided every day among millions and millions of his followers. There is enough for everyone: is just our lack of faith that put the "limits".
