Loaves and Fishes

Yesterday was "loaves and fishes" Sunday for us three-year Series A Proper 13 types. Jesus feeds the 5000 men, not counting women and children (why don't they count?) with five loaves and a couple of fish. So we're getting ready for lunch between Bible class and our catechetical service, and someone spots this in a couple of slices of bread and manages to rescue them before some kid turns it into a PB&J sandwich. Check it out:
You just can't make up stuff like this. I don't know about you, but I'm thinking E-BAY!!!

The coincidence is uncanny. I thought about this a bit and came to a conclusion. We tend to see things we want to see, which explains why Roman Catholics are know to congregate around apparent images of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
What's so cool about this image, aside from the timing of the discovery, is that as Lutheran Christians we are trained to see Jesus, and more specifically a Jesus hidden under the bread, who fed the 5000 plus 2000 years ago and feeds us now weekly with His very Body and Blood for the forgiveness of our sins, life and salvation. It's amazing how He is able to multiple this bread every Sunday across the planet!
