As they were returning to Nazareth with the caravan, Mary and Joseph discovered that Jesus was missing!
They returned to Jerusalem and looked and looked for Him.
After 3 days they finally found Jesus in the Temple, sitting with the teachers, listening and asking questions.
All who heard Him were amazed at His understanding of the Bible and God.
Jesus' mother said, "Son, we were so worried. We have been looking and looking for you."
And Jesus said,"Why were you looking for me? Didn't you know I had to be in my Father's house?"
But He left with them and returned to Nazareth, where He continued to obey His parents and to grow in God's love.

Why did you kill the butterfly?
ReplyDeleteNo apparent reason. I guess any 12-year-old would be curious? lol...
ReplyDeleteHuh! I was wondering about that poor butterfly too. LOL
ReplyDeleteThumbs up for the rad-looking 12 year old Jesus! He looks so cool. Great job sir!
ReplyDeletePerhaps the dead butterfly represents the parents' fear and anxiety? Loss of faith and hope?
