...Simon and those with him went looking for him.
They found him and said, "Everybody's looking for you."
Jesus said, "Let's go to the rest of the villages so I can preach there also. This is why I've come."
He went to their meeting places all through Galilee, preaching and throwing out the demons.
Mark 1:35-39 MSG
Our keynote speaker has gone AWOL!
When he's found out praying in the boonies, Simon gives him a bit of a serve!
The key thing here is not the people and their responses, or even what Jesus does.
Its the underlying pattern.
Jesus prays. (Goes away and seriously prays)
And then takes the next steps, goes, works...
Often I am doing, have chosen my path, and then pray.
The times when I have prayed first seem to be better somehow.
The more we follow Jesus patterns, the better...
