Math Lesson

Today at morning Mass we had a short Math Lesson. It went something like this:

5 fish + 2 loaves of bread = food for 5 people
5 fish + 2 loaves of bread + God = food for 5000 people

Therefore:

2 + 2 = 4
but
2 + 2 + God = There are no limits. Anything is possible.

That's the condensed version of the homily, but I think you get the main idea.

For another angle on the same gospel check out the homily Fr. Stephanos, O.S.B., from One Monk prepared.
