Jesus was a popular spiritual figure of his time, and many people wanted his attention.
If he wanted to, Jesus could have spent every waking hour preaching the Gospel and teaching his disciples about the faith.
However, Jesus didn't always spend his time in public ministry. He would only engage in public discourse after he spent time away in solitude.
This is clear in the 40 days he spent in prayer in the desert, but it didn't end there.
In fact, it became a problem for his disciples, who were often looking for Jesus, not knowing where he was.
Jesus' example reminds us that no matter how many good and wholesome activities we are engaged in, they must be firmly rooted in a life of prayer.
If we want to truly imitate Jesus' life and preach his Gospel, we must make prayer a priority.
