Mark 1:36
34 And He healed many who were ill with various diseases and drove out many demons. But He would not allow the demons to speak, because they knew who He was.
35 Early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up and slipped out to a solitary place to pray.
Simon and his companions went to look for Him,
37 and when they found Him, they said, “Everyone is looking for You!”
38 But Jesus answered, “Let us go on to the neighboring towns so I can preach there as well, for that is why I have come.”
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
