Evening: Psalm 23, 27; Luke 9:1-17
Jesus’
miracles – like the feeding of the 5000 – taught people about
community, and the healing of relationships. In healthy human
communities, the strong support the weak, all are welcome, none suffer
isolation; hospitality is the rule. What is hospitality in a crowd of
5000? Perhaps simply this … Those who have food share with those who
have none, so all are fed. Jesus gave his disciples authority over
evil, and power to heal. Hunger is a sign of brokenness, even evil, in
human communities. When communities are healed, the miracle is that
no-one goes hungry.
