Watching the Summer Olympics this week, we are reminded of the pursuit of excellence in big and triumphant ways. But in our own lives, not every story winds up receiving an olympic gold medal or getting on the cover of Time Magazine. And the truth is, sometimes we aren't satisfied with the ordinary!


Yes, extraordinary things can happen to people, like when Michael Phelps won his 18th gold medal, or when Jesus fed the crowd of 5,000. But as read in the gospel today, we are reminded that sometimes the most amazing works of God happen in the ordinary; through the everyday activity of working, living and being in relationship with others.
