John’s disciples came and took his body and buried it. Then they went and told Jesus. When Jesus heard what had happened, he withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. Hearing of this, the crowds followed him on foot from the towns. When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick.
As evening approached, the disciples came to him and said, “This is a remote place, and it’s already getting late. Send the crowds away, so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.”
 Jesus replied, “They do not need to go away. 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. And he directed the people to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, 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, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. The number of those who ate was about five thousand men, besides women and children.

Matthew 14:12-21

부르신 곳에서 나는 예배하네
어떤 상황에도 나는 예배하네

내가 걸어 갈 때 길이 되고
살아갈 때 삶이 되는
그 곳에서 예배하네

사랑하는 주님, 슬픔 가운데서도 절막한 저희를 향해 compassion을 가지셨던 주님, 당신의 외아들을 십자가에 못박으시는 고통 가운데서도 저희를 향한 구원을 이루셨던 주님, 그런 주님을 삶의 한절이라도 닮아가길 기도합니다. 주님 앞으로의 삶가운데 또 힘든 계절이 찾아올지라도 감정에 따라 살지 아니하고, 주님의 부르심을 기억하며, 주님이 맡기신 일에 흔들림 없이 임하기를 기도합니다. 부족한 저이지만 주님의 일가운데 사용하여주소서.
