Jesus called his disciples to him and said to them, "I feel sorry for all these people".
Mk.8:1,2
After teaching a great crowd for three days, Jesus is moved by compassion for them to perform a miracle. He feeds them all from seven loaves and a few fish.
Compassion: The sympathetic pity and concern for the sufferings or misfortunes of others. It's a great motivator for acts of love and acts of love can result in miracles.
Lord, stir within me compassion for those I meet today.
Saint Scholastica, please pray for me.
