Two loaves and five fish equal seven pieces of food; the number seven means fullness, completion, perfection. Jesus took these mere seven pieces of food and fed a multitude! And it was enough, enough to produce more food than what the disciples started with in the first place! The number of baskets, not mere pieces of food, spoke of a new fullness. Twelve is a Jewish number that represented totality. So, from the wholeness of a little came the wholeness of plenty.

How can so little feed so many? How can the little I offer God do so much? Ponder that thought the next time you receive Eucharist.
