"My" Passage



Mark 8:1-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)
In those days again, when there was a great multitude, and had nothing to eat; calling his disciples together, he saith to them:
I have compassion on the multitude, for behold they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat.
And if I shall send them away fasting to their home, they will faint in the way; for some of them came from afar off.
And his disciples answered him: From whence can any one fill them here with bread in the wilderness?
And he asked them: How many loaves have ye? Who said: Seven.
And taking the seven loaves, giving thanks, he broke, and gave to his disciples for to set before them; and they set them before the people.
And they had a few little fishes; and he blessed them, and commanded them to be set before them.
And they did eat and were filled; and they took up that which was left of the fragments, seven baskets.
And they that had eaten were about four thousand; and he sent them away.
10 And immediately going up into a ship with his disciples, he came into the parts of Dalmanutha.
Jesus can take our little gifts and multiply them for His Kingdom.
