From today's Gospel.
After the five thousand had eaten and were satisfied,
Jesus made his disciples get into the boat
and precede him to the other side toward Bethsaida,
while he dismissed the crowd.
And when he had taken leave of them,
he went off to the mountain to pray...

When Jesus sent the disciples away, and while he dismissed the crowd - that is the time to approach him. When no one can prevent you from approaching him - no one to condemn or scold you. This is the moment of genuine prayer and healing.
Merci, Terry. Merci.
