“You cannot see the forest for the trees” is a widely known saying that can bring wisdom to our understanding of our journey. Often, our sight becomes limited to what is immediately before us. We lose touch with lessons and experiences from the past and READINGS FOR THE WEEK OF promises and hope for the future. As human beings, we have the privilege of being able to AUGUST 1, 2021 choose things. What I like and don’t like, want, and don’t want can be major Sunday: Ex 16:2-4, 12-15/Ps 78:3-4, 23- preoccupations of our minds and hearts. Our preferences and desires begin to define us 24, 25, 54 [24b]/Eph 4:17, 20-24/Jn 6:24 more than the simple fact of our being. Who we are matters more than what we are or -35 what we have. If we don’t move beyond the external and superficial stuff to what really is Monday: Nm 11:4b-15/Ps 81:12-13, 14- of essence, we risk becoming very unsettled, disorientated, angry, and unhappy. We fail to 15, 16-17 [2a]/Mt 14:13-21 see the bigger picture of hope and promise that lies ahead and the Divine Presence that Tuesday: Nm 12:1-13/Ps 51:3-4, 5-6ab, has sustained and carried us before. 6cd-7, 12-13 [cf. 3a]/Mt 14:22-36 or We like it when the “now” time of our lives satisfy us. Even the people who witnessed Mt 15:1-2, 10-14 Jesus feed the five thousand got confused and distracted. It felt good when thousands of Wednesday: Nm 13:1-2, 25—14:1, 26- people were able to eat. They wanted to know what they could do to get this to happen 29a, 34-35/Ps 106:6-7ab, 13-14, 21-22, again! But Jesus quickly reminds them that this is not the point of this sign. As much as the now time of our lives is of concern, it is not what is ultimately important. We need to 23 [4a]/ learn the difference between being and doing, drawing more strength from who we are Mt 15:21-28 and who God is rather than what is happening around us and the choices we can make. Thursday: Nm 20:1-13/Ps 95:1-2, 6-7, 8 Jesus is the true bread that came down from heaven. Jesus is the very incarnate presence -9 [8]/Mt 16:13-23 of God who sustains life and assures us that we will not perish. This is not easy to Friday: Dn 7:9-10, 13-14/Ps 97:1-2, 5-6, understand and feel. We have to practice being in the presence of ourselves, others, 9 [1a and 9a]/2 Pt 1:16-19/Mk 9:2-10 creation, and God. We are brought to a holy place when we encounter the sacredness of Saturday: Dn 6:4-13/Ps 18: 28, 3-4. 47 being. This is real prayer. and 51/Mk 17:14-20 Then, we learn to trust. It is when we cease trusting that we start to become afraid, Next Sunday: 1 Kgs 19:4-8/Ps 34:2-3, 4 uncertain, apprehensive, and doubtful, and overly self-concerned. We even start to -5, 6-7, 8-9 [9a]/Eph 4:30—5:2/Jn 6:41- grumble. God has our back. That is the essential powerful message of the living bread 51 LPi

A woman once remarked that her most 5c 4a; 3b; 2c; 1b; powerful God moment happened when she and her husband cuddled with their new baby for a time. Without exchanging words and using only the affection communicated through sight and touch, they rested in being with each other. This brought them to the sacred, where they realized that a greater Being was with them. It was real. They knew that they were part of something bigger, intimate, and profound. When we rest in the Living Source of life, we will find that our souls are no longer hungry or thirsty. ©LPi
