Last night commenting on the parable of the multiplication of loaves by Jesus, Fr Palli offered the boys another version of the 'miracle'. He said that perhaps Jesus did not really 'multiply' bread and fish. But how then did the five thousand men eat to their fill? Well, they certainly had their own tiffin boxes and carriages. All that Jesus really did was touch their hearts to help them be generous enough to share with all what each one already had. Thus not only was the food sufficient but there was extra/left overs too. He concluded his goodnight thought saying: Even if the pocket is small but the heart is big, wondrous things can be done!
I guess this is the real story of most of our benefactors. People with small pockets but large hearts!
