LUKE 6:12-16
Jesus went up to the mountain to pray, and he spent the night in prayer to God.
When day came, he called his disciples to himself,and from them he chose Twelve, whom he also named Apostles: Simon, whom he named Peter, and his brother Andrew,James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew,Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon who was called a Zealot, and Judas the son of James,and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.
It was after prayer on the mountain that Jesus chose the Apostles including the one who whould betray him. The night of prayer was followed the next day with action. The mountain is a place to be alone with God and feel closer to God. I pray today for a clear insight of God's will for my actions this day.
