In the Gospel for this morning, the people say to Jesus, “Everyone is asking for you!” But he replied, “We must go on to the other towns as well, and I will preach to them too, because that is why I came.” How much more clear could He have been? Jesus is really saying:”I can’t just hang out here in one town. I have places to go and people to see! That is why I came”_to reach as many as possible with the message of Good News. I have to keep moving! I can’t let grass grow under our feet. Tell the people to follow along if they want, but we must go to other towns where I will preach to them too.”
