Before daybreak the next morning, 

Jesus got up and went out 

to an isolated place to pray. 

Later Simon and the others went out to find him. 

When they found him, 

they said, 

“Everyone is looking for you.” 

But Jesus replied, 

“We must go on to other towns as well, 

and I will preach to them, 

too. 

That is why I came.”

Mark 1:35-38
