\nGod, we have filled our lives with so many things that there is scarcely room left for each other and for you.\u00a0 \u201cThere is no time!\u201d we protest. \u201cI know you\u2019re busy,\u201d we assume. Slow us down, God; forgive us our busi-ness which destroys our openness, our preoccupation which leaves us unaware of the gentle breeze of your Spirit, our self-absorption which makes us ignore the cries of our brothers and sisters.\u00a0 And if we have not yet been possessed by your word of grace and acceptance, we pray that our ears may be opened to hear it now.\u00a0\u00a0 AMEN<\/p>\n
