God, in your love for us, you allow us to reach you in any place and any time,
because nothing exists without you permeating it through and through.<SPAN

also.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>However, because of the noise
and crowds surrounding us, we need at times to go to a deserted place, a lonely
solitary place.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>May we reconnect
with you in our desert through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with
you and the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever.<SPAN
