Lectio - Mk 6.30-34

Meditatio: "He said to them, ‘Come away by yourselves to a deserted place and rest awhile’.” Mk 6.31a

Oratio: "O God, you are solicitous for our needs.
I remember after the Twelve had returned from their missionary work, your Son told them to go to a quiet place and rest awhile.
Grant that I may recognize the importance of rest and quiet time not only to recharge my physical batteries but my spiritual ones
as well for that is your recipe for well being.
I ask this of you, who lives and reigns with Jesus and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever. Amen.”

Contemplatio – Keep silence and remain in recollection for a few minutes.
