Wednesday Reflection 🕯️
“Ipunin ninyo ang lumabis nang di masayang.” Juan 6:12
This happened after the feeding of 5,000 men, excluding women and children.
Binusog muna ni Jesus ang napakaraming tao bago tinipon ang tira—12 baskets full. For truly, He is the God of abundance. He is the God of more than enough.
This month, we join the Pope’s prayer intention that everyone might have food. Pero bakit marami ang nagugutom? Dahil wala tayong sapat na pagpapahalaga sa biyaya ng Diyos. Saan at bakit nagkukulang? Dahil sa culture of waste and lack of good stewardship.
God wastes nothing.
Ayaw ni Jesus na may masayang na tinapay, at ayaw Niyang may masayang na buhay. Pinupulot Niya ang ating mga pusong sugatan, ang ating mga kabiguan, at ang mga pira-pirasong bahagi ng ating buhay upang buuin muli at gamitin sa Kanyang dakilang layunin.
🙏 Father God, we pray for Your guidance and wisdom as we navigate through life, and we ask that You continue to provide not only food on our tables but also the grace of nourishment in the Holy Eucharist. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
