Why did Christ in the miracle of the Gospel passage multiply the few loaves and make them many, and today he does not seem to do a similar miracle? Those people were worthy of the miracle, while we are unworthy. Why were they worthy? They were running to find Jesus Christ, who had withdrawn into the desert. Christ was in the desert, but their heart was not a desert of holy desires. How many are running close to Christ today? There thousands ran, on foot, to find the Desire. Here, next to us, is the Temple, but most people, 98%, do not feel the need for Christ, the need to go to church. Those people were asking Christ for the "greatest". That's why He also gave them the "minor". Their souls were hungry, their bodies were also hungry. Every day they enjoyed the spiritual food, the word of Christ. Then Christ also gave them material bread. Are you asking for spiritual things? You will also have the materials.
Archim. Daniel Aerakis
