Everything we need to feed the world (Fr. Ron Rolheiser)

   We are all familiar with the story of the fishes and the loaves. So little food, so many people.  The resources of the Gospel always seem hopelessly dwarfed by the world’s power, the world’s hunger, the world’s sin, and the resources that the world itself seems to offer. 

   What do we need to understand about the story? We need to understand that when we are with the bread of life, everything we need to feed the world, we already have. We don’t need to go anywhere to buy anything.  We have the resources already.

--Fr. Ron Rolheiser, OMI
