In Mark 10, we read of the man who asked Jesus, "what must I do to inherit eternal life?" (Mk 10:17) In the exchange between the man and Jesus, Mark notes that Jesus, looking at him, loved him...We consider here the gaze of Jesus, the love found on His merciful face.

In Chapter 11 of the Book of Numbers, we read the story of Moses being told to gather 70 elders of the people and to bring them to The Meeting Tent, a spot where "the Lord used to speak to Moses face to face." (Ex 33:11) After being touched by God, the 70 elders begin to prophesy. We consider in this homily how we too have been touched by God as temples of the Holy Spirit and are empowered to listen to God and to prophesy.

In Mark 9:33-37, we see a beautiful instance of Jesus taking time to correct the incorrect thinking of His apostles...giving them wisdom. Through the gift of the Holy Spirit, the disciples of Jesus still have the opportunity to commune with Jesus and receive wisdom from Jesus, the gift of seeing things His way.

Isaiah prophesied, "streams will burst forth in the desert." (Is 35:6) In and through Jesus Christ, God's love has burst into this world, and of His disciples filled with the Holy Spirit, Jesus declares, "rivers of living water will flow from within..."(Jn 7:37)

In the dramatic final scene of The Bread of Life Discourse, Jesus invites his listeners to consider, "what if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where He was before?" (Jn 6:62) Today, here and now, if a man or woman wants to see God...show them the Eucharist.
