Matt 5:1
And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a
mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
Jesus saw the
multitudes at this time and went up into a mountain. After he settled himself his disciples came
to him. We can learn about life from
Jesus’ example. He moved up and away
from the multitudes at times and gathered with some of his closest, like-minded
friends. Sometimes we can see the
multitudes of people, tasks, trials, responsibilities and burdens and choose to
immerse ourselves in them even more.
There is a time to go up and away from the multitude and see what really
follows us. There is a time to get
together with people who are committed to us and the things the Lord is doing
through us. To isolate ourselves in
order to avoid responsibility may be a very bad thing but to isolate ourselves
to face responsibility may not only be good but necessary.
