Every year the parents of Jesus went to Jerusalem for the Feast of the Passover, as was customary. And whenJesus was twelve years old, e went up with them, according to the custom of this feast. After the festival was over, they returned but the boy Jesus remained in Jerusalem, and his parents did not know it.
They thought he was in the company, and after walking the whole day they looked for him among their relatives and friends. As they did not ind him, they went back to Jerusalem searching for him, and on the third day they found him in the Temple, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking questions. And all the people were amazed at his understanding and his answers.
His parents were very surprised when they saw him, and his mother said to him, "Son, why have you done this to us? Your father and I were very worried while searching for you." Then he said to them, "Why were you looking for me? Did you not know that I must be in my father's house?" But they did not understand this answer.
Jesus went down with them, returning to Nazareth, and he continued to be subject to them. As for his mother, she kept all these things in her heart.
And Jesus increased in wisdom and age, and in divine and human favor.
Luke 2:41-52
"Almighty God, keep me safe in Your house as I journey towards finding my purpose."
