HIS HEART WAS MOVED WITH PITY
First Reading 1John 4:7-10 Let us love
one another, since love comes from God
Responsorial Psalm: Lord, every
nation on earth will adore you.
Justice shall flower in his days, and
profound peace, till the moon be no more. May he rule from sea to sea, and from
the River to the ends of the earth.
Gospel Mark 6:34-44 The feeding of
the five thousand
When Jesus saw the vast crowd, his heart
was moved with pity for them, for they were like sheep without a shepherd; and
he began to teach them many things. By now it was already late and his
disciples approached him and said, “This is a deserted place and it is already
very late. Dismiss them so that they can go to the surrounding farms and
villages and buy themselves something to eat.” He said to them in reply, “Give
them some food yourselves.” But they said to him, “Are we to buy two hundred
days’ wages worth of food and give it to them to eat?” He asked them, “How many
loaves do you have? Go and see.” And when they had found out they said, “Five
loaves and two fish.”
So he gave orders to have them sit down in groups on the green grass. The
people took their places in rows by hundreds and by fifties. Then, taking the
five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he said the blessing,
broke the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before the people; he
also divided the two fish among them all. They all ate and were satisfied. And
they picked up twelve wicker baskets full of fragments and what was left of the
fish. Those who ate of the loaves were five thousand men.
My God, have mercy on me. Jesus my
Shepherd, what will you have me do? Lord, I trust in you. Virgin Mary, pray for
me. Saint Joseph pray for me. My Angel Guardian, pray for me.
Pray the Holy Rosary. Remember,
O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to
thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left
unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my
mother.
AELF: L’AMOUR VIENT DE DIEU - «Il fut saisi de pitié envers eux»
Évangile Marc 6, 34-44 «La
multiplication des pains»
En débarquant, Jésus vit une grande foule.
Il fut saisi de pitié envers eux, parce qu'ils étaient comme des brebis sans
berger. Alors, il se mit à les instruire longuement. Déjà l'heure était
avancée; ses disciples s'étaient approchés et lui disaient: «L'endroit est
désert et il est déjà tard. Renvoie-les, qu'ils aillent dans les fermes et les
villages des environs s'acheter de quoi manger». Il leur répondit: «Donnez-leur
vous-mêmes à manger». Ils répliquent: «Allons-nous dépenser le salaire de deux
cents journées pour acheter du pain et leur donner à manger?». Jésus leur
demande: «Combien avez-vous de pains? Allez voir». S'étant informés, ils lui
disent: «Cinq, et deux poissons».
Il leur ordonna de les faire tous asseoir par groupes sur l'herbe verte. Ils
s'assirent en rond par groupes de cent et de cinquante. Jésus prit les cinq
pains et les deux poissons, et, levant les yeux au ciel, il prononça la
bénédiction, rompit les pains, et il les donnait aux disciples pour qu'ils les
distribuent. Il partagea aussi les deux poissons entre eux tous. Tous mangèrent
à leur faim. Et l'on ramassa douze paniers pleins de morceaux de pain et de
poisson. Ceux qui avaient mangé les pains étaient au nombre de cinq mille
hommes.
Mon Dieu, ayez pitié de moi. Jésus, mon
Berger, que veux-tu que je fasse ? Seigneur, j'ai confiance en toi. Mère de
Dieu, priez pour moi. Saint Joseph, priez pour moi. Mon Ange Gardien, priez
pour moi.
Priez le saint chapelet. Souvenez-vous, ô Vierge Marie on n‘a
jamais entendu qu’aucun de ceux qui ont recours à votre protection,
imploré votre secours ou réclamé votre intercession a été laissé sans aide.
Inspirée par cette confiance, je me réfugie auprès de vous, ô Vierge des
vierges, ma Mère.
