Today’s Reflection: I pray for focus today, dear God, because during Advent, my mind and attention tend to wander. There are so many distractions, many of them well-meaning. But nothing gives my heart rest like resting in You. I pray that I keep You at the focus of my day today, because I know the peace that only You offer. Amen.  — Jesuit prayer site

Have you a “deserted place” to go for rest?

Today’s Reflection: The apostles gathered together with Jesus
and reported all they had done and taught.
He said to them,
“Come away by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while.” — From the Gospel according to Mark
Mk 6:30-34
