1 John 4:7-10; Ps 72;Mark 6:34-44

Something to eat

Out of love for those who were lost, like sheep with no shepherd, Jesus spoke ‘at some length.’ They were hungry – both spiritually and physically – and Jesus ‘gave them something to eat,’ because God is love, and Jesus is God. Jesus relies on us to be God’s practical love for those in need.
