  <description>&lt;p&gt;Homily from the Eighteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Choose God over the works of God.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The signs point to Jesus and Jesus is the point of the signs. When we are challenged to merely consume… When we are challenged to want the gifts more than the Giver of the gift, we must allow ourselves to be trained in a trust in God. To be trained in freedom.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;dl&gt;
&lt;dt&gt; Mass Readings from August 1, 2021:&lt;/dt&gt;
&lt;dt&gt; Exodus 16:2-4, 12-15&lt;/dt&gt;
&lt;dt&gt; Psalms 78:3-4, 23-25, 54&lt;/dt&gt;
&lt;dt&gt;Ephesians 4:17, 20-24&lt;/dt&gt; &lt;p&gt;John 6:24-35&lt;/p&gt;
