Luke 2:46-47 NIV
46 After three days they found him in the temple courts, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions. 47 Everyone who heard him was amazed at his understanding and his answers.
On the third day, they found him in the Temple, learning from the teachers. It seems amazing that God’s Son needed to learn, but this is part of the incarnation – Jesus emptied himself of many of his divine ‘powers’ so he could become just like us and enter our lives fully. As such, not only could he redeem every aspect of our lives, but also be a true role model for us – and if Jesus needed to take the time to learn about God and faith, so do we!
Father, give us curious minds so that we might thirst to know about you and the life you call us to live.
