Mark 6:45-46 "Immediately Jesus made his disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him to Bethsaida, while he dismissed the crowd. After leaving them, he went up on a mountainside to pray."
Sometimes we have to stop everything, push others to the side and go to our personal mountaintops so God can replenish our dehydrated faith. We take our cue from Jesus who, in Mark 6:45-46, sent everyone on their way so he could spend time with God. This time of Sabbath is vital for our well-being.
