DO NOT JUST LAMENT DO SOMETHING

Mark 6:34-44

Even though Jesus knew that he could multiply food, Jesus put the initiative on the disciples. He said to them, “Give them something to eat yourselves.” Our Lord insists that we be proactive in tackling the challenges in the world. He wants to see faith in action and compassion towards others. If we desire to make the world a better place, we will have to help solve the problems we encounter – of course with the Lord’s help. Enough of lamentations: do something to make the world a better place.

Lord Jesus Christ, help us not to shy away from the problems in the world but rather cooperate with you in offering solutions. Help us to make this world a better place. Amen.
