Description

Reflecting as a parent, there is nothing like suddenly realizing your child is missing.

Luke 2:46, in scripture of Catholics and Christians find that Jesus and His family had ventured into Jeruselem. On the return trip home, Mary and Joseph discovered Jesus was missing. At first, they determined he had been travelling with his cousins. Eventually, they found Jesus was not with them.

“…after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking questions.”

I am certain that Mary and Joseph were both terrified and relieved they had found their son.
Of course they were not happy that He was still in the temple, still after missing Jesus for three days.
Mary “…admonished…” Him,

Yet, it was Jesus who responded, “How is iti that you sought me? Did you not know that I must be in my Father’s house?”
