16th Sunday - B


Commentary

"His Heart Is Moved with Pity for Them"

The apostles returned from the mission that Jesus sent them (last week’s Gospel).  They did a lot.  

Yet, people still come and go in great numbers.  And people keep coming.  There are always people in need.

Jesus know the needs of the people.  Jesus know the people.  And “his heart is moved with pity for them.”

We can never do enough.  

There will be always people in need.

May we grow in the attitude of Jesus, whose “heart is moved with pity for them.”

Also, may we trust that Jesus knows us and our needs; and that “his heart is moved with pity” for us.
