Read John 6:1-15 as a Eucharistic passage where Jesus takes bread, gives thanks, and then distributes it for the nourishment of the multitudes. Consider the elements of the table: bread and wine. God gives us grain and grapes. We make the bread and the wine and offer it back to God. The mystery of the Lord's Supper is that God then sanctifies the gift we have given and gives it back to us as the body and blood of Christ. Our simple gift is transformed into the nourishment of the church and transformation of the world.
What small gift do you have to give, that when offered to God can nourish the multitudes?
