I spend most of my free time gardening, reading garden magazines, photographing the garden or baking (mostly sweets, which list chocolate as the main ingredient). I play the guitar and sing in a contemporary choir of which I have been a member for 26 years.

Thought for the Day

Come apart into a desert place and rest a little. Mk. 6:31

REFLECTION: Our inner life needs the best; it needs solitude. Indeed, the soul needs times of silence that it may not be overcome by dissipation. In this way it can be recollected in God and be prepared for all the tasks and struggles that lie ahead.

During this time of meditation we communicate with God and learn what He expects of us.

Do I regularly seek this solitude?

PRAYER: Lord, calm my soul so that I may silently listen to and treasure Your word.
