Wednesday of the First Week of Advent
Two different meals mentioned in the readings today, the great feast on the Lord's mountain from Isaiah, and the multiplication of loaves. Both refer to a meal that is so much more than just food to be put in our bellies, however. They refer to the Eucharist, the bread of life, which is to get us ready for the Eternal Banquet in Heaven. Who knew salvation could be connected with good food?
