1st August - Gospel Reflection
Steve Agrisano’s song is a beautiful reflection on this week’s Gospel.
If you read the story of Jesus feeding the five thousand, it says in John 6: Jesus “..gave out to all...as much as was wanted.” The disciples never lacked anything when they walked with Jesus even though they had no money to provide for their daily living. In today's world, this Good News still remains that with Jesus we lack nothing because He provides more than enough - and they ate and were satisfied.
Audrey Assad’s song (linked above) beautifully reflects this.
