August 11, 2019 - In the Gospel of St. Mark Chapter 8, the disciples are faced with an impossible situation. Over 4,000 were in need of food and the disciples only had 7 loaves of bread and a few small fish. Jesus asks them, "What do you have?" They offer Him only what they had and the Kingdom of God miraculously was manifest in the miracle of the feeding of the 4,000. Do we lack the faith that Christ can manifest His Kingdom through our lives? In this homily we remember that Christ only asks us for what we have. He overcomes what we lack and all of our deficiencies in order to reveal Himself through us to a world that so desperately needs Him.
