A most lovely individual entered the earth as a Saviour 2000 years ago. He was adored and lived a modest life here for the entirety of his life. He made people happy. He was not merely a man. He was the Lord. A portion of the Holy Bible called the New Testament contains accounts of his life.
Jesus grew up in a little village in Nazareth and every year, his parents Mary and Joseph would visit Jerusalem for Passover feast.
By time time he turned 12, they went to usual trip and once the feast was over they left for home.
Mary and Joseph were travelling with a group of family and friends and they thought Jesus was somewhere in the group. But he wasn't here. His parents went back to Jerusalem. Three days, they found their son in the temple who sat with wise men and teachers, he was listening to them and asking them questions, everyone in the temple were amazed to see him. How wise the young boy like him was.
Mary went up to him and asked "Why did you do this? Your father and I were so worried, we looked everywhere in the city for you."
"Why were you searching everywhere for me?" Jesus answered. "You should have known that I would be in my father's house."
His parents did not understand what he meant.
Jesus went back to Nazareth, with Mary and Joseph and honoured them as his parents, but this little incident made Mary think a lot as she watched Jesus grown up to be a young man. Everyone loved him and he will be, a honoured God in whatever he do.
