Stewardship of Faith Weekend

The crowds challenged Jesus to show them a sign the day after he fed them and many others with five loaves and two fish. What a difference a day makes! But I won’t criticize them because I sometimes forget the Lord’s blessings and seek more miraculous signs every day to affirm my faith. Thankfully, Jesus anticipated this weakness by giving Himself to us in the Eucharist. “Do this in memory of me,” He said. So we remember Him every week, even every day. While doing so we savor His words: “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst” (John 6:35).
