When Jesus saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.

Matthew 9, 36

TO FAST IS NOT:JUST TO STAY AWAYFROM FOOD OR DRINKOR WHATEVER SACRIFICEYOU COME UP WITH, OR THINK!

TO PLACE ONESELF FREELYWHERE OTHERS ARE FORCED TO STAY

TO SEE LIFE FROM THEIR POINT OF VIEW

TO FEEL OTHER PEOPLE’S NEEDS

TO MIX WITH THE CROWDAND BE ONE OF THEM

FEELINGS WRITTEN BY OTHERSTO SAY MANY WORDS

Our Father in heaven,hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.

This, then, is how you should pray:

Matthew 6, 9-14

TO SHARE IS NOT:

TO JUST DIP A HANDIN A POCKET FOR COINSOR PICK SOMETHING SMALLTO GIVE AS IF GOLD

TO SHARE IS:

TO BE PRESENT WHERE ONE CAN BE USEFUL

TO OFFER ONE’S GOODS EVEN IF ONLY FIVE BARLEY LOAVES AND TWO FISH

TO EMPOWER OTHERS TO STAND ON THEIR OWNTO GET INVOLVED IN FINDING SOLUTIONS

CREATIVITY

SHARING IS MOVED BY

COMPASSION

LIMITED ONLY BY ONE’S

...And the disciples said: "Send the crowds away, so they can buy themselves some food." Jesus replied, "You give them something to eat." "We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish," they answered. "Bring them here to me," he said. Taking the five loaves and the two fish, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people. They all ate and were satisfied. Matthew 14, 14-21
