Having spent last week in isolation with a cold, I was just feeling rather miserable when I suddenly realized that these days of silence were a gift. I have had time to pray and, in a sense, it has been a week of retreat. I do not pray well when I am ill, but it was a grace to recognize that this time could be pure gift and Jesus does not need me to do more than just be here with Him and ask Him to take care of the many things wrong with our world.
I also am catching up on reading, but mostly I am doing nothing!
