Then Jesus said, “Let’s go off by ourselves to a quiet place and rest awhile.”… Mark 6:31a
They all ate as much as they wanted. Mark 6:42
In the space between these verses is the amazing story of how Jesus fed 5,000 men at a place where the apostles were just hoping to get some rest. Sometimes all of us just need to get away. But Jesus comes up with astonishing ways to give us what we need in a way we least imagine. 
Far better to be known to God and forgotten by people than to be famous with men and unheard of in Heaven. Choose your friends carefully because only one sticks closer than a brother.
And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed. Genesis 2:8 KJV
“What are you doing?!” I shouted at my friend who had weeding in the perennial garden along the back wall.
“Look I pulled all the weeds out!” he said. I shook my head in amazement at the six feet of flower bed that now lay completely devoid of growth of any kind.
“But you pulled everything else out too. Where are the flowers?” I asked in confusion.
“I’m sorry there were so many weeds that I couldn’t tell which ones were the flowers.” He said sorrowfully.
My fault had been in allowing the weeds to get so thick that it had become impossible to pull them out. I had forgotten that a garden grows best when there is a space around the flowers.
Maybe that is why we sometimes feel alone and God seems silent. He has not forgotten us, but in the garden that is our soul He has chosen to make some space between the flowers. He pulls out and separates things from our lives so that we will bloom our brightest and most brilliant colors when the season is just right.
