He remained outside in deserted places.

“He remained outside in deserted places, and people kept coming to him from everywhere.” (MK 1: 45)

One of the places Our Lord wants to be found is “deserted places.” Especially now, when we live locked down, our homes suddenly become offices and schools, and being just a family at home is more complicated. So it will help make some “deserted places” at homes, places without phones, screens, and headphones. Deserted from distractors and open for relationships.
