Matthew 14:15-16
When it was evening, the disciples came to him and said, “This is a deserted place, and the hour is now late; send the crowds away so that they may go into the villages and buy food for themselves.” Jesus said to them, “They need not go away; you give them something to eat.”
*       *       *       *       *       *       *
"You feed them."  Succinct. To the point.  No fine print in the contract. No need to parse the original languages or consult a Biblical professor to understand.  "You feed them."  You as in, "Yes, you."  Feed as in food.  Them as in any one who is hungry.  We respond with the excuses, "But,Lord..."  The Lord would not have told us to feed the people if he didn't believe we could.  This Jesus would himself say, "Take and eat. This is my body."  What does it take to feed the world? A piece of you and a piece of me.  
*      *      *        *        *       *       *
Let us feed one another.  If there are any questions, Lord, give us the patience to deal with the questions later. Amen
