Follow His Example


"Now it came to pass in those days that He went out to the mountain to pray and continued all night in prayer to God."
(from Luke 6:12).
In the Gospel of Luke it frequently reports that Jesus prayed before major events in His ministry. The above describes our Lord praying the night before choosing His twelve disciples(read verses 13-16 of that same chapter).Other examples of Jesus in prayer within this Gospel:Luke 3:21--Chapter5:16--Chapter 9:18,28,29--Chapter 11:1--Chapter 22:32,40-46).
May we follow His example of looking to God instead of man when important issues and events arise in our life.
