February 29th: Mark 6:45-52: Jesus Gets Some Time Alone With God and Stops the Wind

We are a proud people as human beings. We think we have things under control. We think we are strong enough and powerful enough to handle everything on our own. We, of course, are not. God often has to smack us a round a bit so that begin to rely on him instead of on ourselves. If we look at this passage closely we will see that Jesus went away to be alone with God.
This is something that we all need to do but how often do we really get away, and get alone with God? Where we spend time in his word and prayer?
Oh, by the way, Jesus as awesome. He walks on water, and stops the wind in this passage, you and I cannot do that. So if Jesus needed to get along with God don't you think we need too?
