Mark 6:30-34, 53-56

An exhausted Jesus responds to the crowd with compassion. I think that’s a miracle.

We may all be in a phase of reorientation for a while.

The apostles are on fire in this Gospel passage. I don't always get along with people like that.

“Many were coming and going, and they had no leisure, even to eat.” I think of the many lunches spent at my computer with a sandwich.

Jesus listens patiently to the disciples. Then he tucks them in for a nap.

Have the disciples started to think this is all about them? I know I would.

If the Ephesians forget who they were, they will presume God owes them something.
