Being Fed

Before we start over-symbolizing the feeding of the 5,000 as the Eucharist, let’s take it at face value - Jesus tends His sheep. And discipleship means we are called to do the same, yes, but first Jesus shows us Himself what it looks like. Jesus feeds the 5,000. Jesus goes to the blind man, finds him, and brings him into the fold, so that he can go in and out and have abundant life. Jesus serves up breakfast on the shore of the Sea of Galilee. Only when we experience Jesus’ feeding of us can we begin to imagine living out Jesus’ words to Peter, “tend my lambs.” Instead, Jesus provides sustenance, nourishment, pasture - and abundantly so - all connected to His life. Being fed, literally, is an excellent way of recognizing the presence of God. That where people are fed, literally, is where you can expect to experience grace - see it, taste it, smell it and feel it.
