Is 25:6-10a, Ps 23, Matthew 15:29-37

Jesus’ agents of mercy

Jesus healed the lame, the crippled and the blind, but his compassion would not allow him to dismiss the people and let them go home hungry. He used the little food that the disciples had and multiplied it, after which he asked the disciples to distribute the food. They would have felt so proud to have been part of the action on that day. So today Jesus uses and multiplies what little we have by way of confidence, talent and so on. Am I willing to be part of the action?
