August 16, 2015: 20th Sunday in Ordinary Time

God gives us new Life by giving us His very self.  Jesus calls us to partake of Him, for He is truly food and drink that leads to Life Everlasting.  The readings speak of the wisdom of God, which is like a bountiful banquet that summons us to forsake foolish ways and live differently:  Jesus is the Wisdom of God, who offers a bountiful banquet.  By partaking of Him, we receive a share in His Life, which directs us in living righteously in this earthly life as we journey toward Eternal Life with Him.
