    "On this mountain, the Lord of hosts will prepare for all peoples a banquet of rich food, a banquet of fine wines, of food rich and juicy, of fine strained wines." (Isaiah 25: 6...10).

    Wednesday 1st December 2021, in the First Week of Advent is the feast of St Edmund Campion of the Society of Jesus. Born January 25th, 1540 and hanged, drawn and quartered in Tyburn, London on December 1st, 1581.  St Edmund Campion could have chosen to remain a Fellow at Oxford University and enjoy this life to the fullest. But he believed in the promises of Jesus. "There is something better." St Edmund Campion is the most famous of the English Catholic martyrs. He is acclaimed universally as a great poet.

    On the Mountain in today's Gospel, Jesus cured the lame, the blind, the deformed, the mute, and many others. (Cf Matthew 15: 30).  All signs pointing to the Messianic Kingdom.

    "On the same Mountain, "[Jesus] took the seven loaves and the fish, gave thanks, broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples, who in turn gave them to the crowds.
    They all ate and were satisfied.
    They picked up the fragments left over—seven baskets full."  (Matthew 15: 37).  One more Messianic Sign.

    The rich food and choice wines of Isaiah and the baskets of bread and fish are types of the Eucharist which will provide sufficient and super satisfying nourishment in the Kingdom of God on earth.

    Does this vision seem unrealistic? Not at all! God will fulfill all His promises as Isaiah declared below:

    "On that day it will be said:
    “Behold our God, to whom we looked to save us!
    This is the LORD for whom we looked; let us rejoice and be glad that he has saved us!”
    For the hand of the LORD will rest on this mountain."  (Isaiah 25:  9 - 10).

    Amen. Trust in God forever!
