July 29, 2018– Seventeenth Sunday in Ordinary Time Reflection by Rev. Leonard N. Peterson “Summertime, and the livin’ is easy”…except for the cook at those hot season barbecues. I’m not talking about the cartoonish male figure wearing a funny apron and taking delight in tossing raw meat on the grill with gusto. Rather do I refer to the more gentle lady who cooks routinely and more rightly deserves the title. She knows all about making sure that there is plenty of food to go around for the invited guests and how to avoid the dreaded possibility of not having enough. This weekend we hear the fascinating story of how such an outcome would never befall Jesus. He would simply multiply the food and there would be plenty. Even for thousands of unexpected guests. I trust that for most Christian hearers, this story has one implied meaning that goes well beyond the etiquette of hospitality. It points directly to the chief sacrament of the sermons and reflections, treatises and retreats that have been dedicated to it: the Holy Eucharist. The reason is simple: the Eucharist is Christ. The limits of this small space preclude any lengthy addition to these learned efforts. On the basis of what I presume holds true for readers of this piece, found in a Catholic parish bulletin, namely a belief that the bread and wine, once consecrated by the priest, become the Body and Blood of the living Christ, I will only treat it here as a special example of God’s loving compassion for us. Note how before His responsive action, Jesus is moved at the sight of the crowd drawn to Him. John doesn’t actually mention Jesus’ emotion but we can deduce it when we read that He “raised His eyes and saw that a large crowd was coming to Him.” We know it’s at least late afternoon or early evening. Just the time it took for over 5,000 men (with no mention of women and children, which would likely double that number) would tell us that they were tired and hungry from their walk. A caring Jesus fed them. Just as natural food sustains our physical lives, so the Eucharist does for our spiritual lives. In either case we would die without it. So today we have access at Mass to the best of all foods. It is a richer meal than that distributed on the hillside so long ago. We also have the opportunity of Holy Communion with the very Host of that famous outdoor picnic. He it is who is the very Bread of Life. I close with the first two verses in English of a Latin Eucharistic hymn called “Adoro Te Devote” written by St. Thomas Aquinas nearly 800 years ago: “Hidden God, devoutly I adore Thee, truly present underneath these veils: all my heart subdues itself before Thee, since it all before Thee faints and fails. Not to sight, or taste, or touch be credit hearing only do we trust secure; I believe, for God the Son has said it- Word of truth that ever shall endure.” First Reading: II Kings 4:42-44 Here Elisha uses his extraordinary power to multiply twenty loaves to feed one hundred people. This is an obvi-ous preparation for Our Lord’s New Testament miracle. Note how the servant at first doubts Elisha. Second Reading: Ephesians 4:1-6 Paul, having attained a powerful authority of witness from his imprisonment, outlines the necessary virtues needed in the community in order to maintain its unity in Christ. Gospel: John 6:1-15 The well-known miraculous feeding story hints strongly of the Eucharist yet to come. We note that Philip is mainly worried about the cost of bread, and Andrew has doubt about Our Lord’s ability, as did the servant of Elisha. The crowd of well-fed witnesses misunderstands Jesus’ kingship mission.
