Story
Do want to hear another Jesus story? Here is a wonderful one that you will surely love!

Once, Jesus went with his family to Jerusalem as a young boy to celebrate the Passover festival.

But on their way back, Mary and Joseph realized that Jesus was missing! Afraid for their son’s life, the couple returned to Jerusalem and searched for Jesus. It took them three days before they found the young Jesus at the temple. He was sitting there calmly, learning from the teachers.

The worried parents scolded Jesus lovingly and said, “where were you son, we were looking all over for you.”

Hearing this, Jesus replied, “Why were you worried? Didn’t you know I would be at my father’s temple?”

Lesson
God is our father.
