"Food for the body is not enough……there must be food for the soul."
"Our faith is stronger than death, our philosophy is firmer than flesh, and the spread of the Kingdom of God upon the earth is more sublime and more compelling. Our salvation depends upon the poor."
Dorothy Day
Food for the body is much easier to find and easier to understand. Bread, vegetables, protein, fruit, we understand theses pieces of our daily dietary requirements. Food or the soul is much more challenging to wrap our heads around.
What feeds your soul? Time reading and reflecting on Scripture? Mass? Adoration? Prayer with family or friends?
When you next help provide someone with food for the body, how can you also feed their soul?
Take time today to feed your soul. Seek out a way to help feed another's soul.
