On Sunday, Isaiah introduces us to the generous God who calls the spiritually famished to a feast. The psalmist deepens the theme, sketching the character of the host whose patience is wide and whose steadfast love never runs thin. Matthew then gives us the joyful story of the feeding of the five thousand, where Jesus meets human hunger with divine compassion and turns scarcity into shared abundance. The disciples see only limits, “We have only five loaves and two fish,” but Jesus, who sees possibility, says, “Bring them here to me.”
I look forward to Sunday, when we gather again at the table of God’s overflowing grace.
