The reading for today is Luke 2:52 NIV.

" And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man." NIV

At this time Jesus was just 12 years old. He has gotten lost on a visit to Jerusalem with his parents. They find him in the temple. The Rabbis are astounded with this child. They don't know that he is the messiah, and later they deny him and crucify him.

He only got BETTER! Imagine that!!!

When I read these verses and others describing who he is, I want to know what happened between 12 and 33 years of age. I want to sit down and ask him questions. NO, I am not crazy, I just want to know more about him.

Lord, you are so great, merciful and kind. I can't wait to talk to you when I get to heaven. Amen
