Gospel Reflection
Would any of you who are parents
give your child a wētā when asked for a fish?
Bad as you are, you know what to give your children;
how much more will the heavenly Father
give to those who ask.
Believe what Jesus says,
God is generous; God is good.
Gospel Reading - The Bread from Heaven
22-23The next morning, back across the lake, crowds began gathering on the shore waiting to see Jesus.a For they knew that he and his disciples had come over together and that the disciples had gone off in their boat, leaving him behind. Several small boats from Tiberias were nearby, 24so when the people saw that Jesus wasn’t there, nor his disciples, they got into the boats and went across to Capernaum to look for him.
25When they arrived and found him, they said, “Sir, how did you get here?” 26Jesus replied, “The truth of the matter is that you want to be with me because I fed you, not because you believe in me. 27But you shouldn’t be so concerned about perishable things like food. No, spend your energy seeking the eternal life that I, the Messiah,b can give you. For God the Father has sent me for this very purpose.”
28They replied, “What should we do to satisfy God?”
29Jesus told them, “This is the will of God, that you believe in the one he has sent.”

Alleluia! Mary of Magdala said to the disciples,
I have seen the Lord!
The Lord is risen indeed! Alleluia!
The Lord's Prayer
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial
and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
now and for ever.
Amen.
