Proper 1 Year B

Proper 1
Mark 1.29-39

Contemplate a solitary place where you can best pray. Where would you choose? Perhaps the sea shore, where you can hear God speak in the roar of the waves; or a wood where you hear him whisper in the rustle of the leaves; a garden, where you see his hope in the new buds opening; at the foot of a mountain, where your eyes strain to see the summit, tantalizingly near yet unreachable; or the peak, where the world is spread out beneath you in all its detail, diversity and fragility; a desert, where the wind blows new shapes in the sand every day?...
