    Jesus’ reply to his parents reveal to us 3 things: (1)He knows His identity; (1)His heart is with God; (3)He is concerned with His Father’s business. Learn from Him.

It puzzled me so much to the extent that I sought to found scriptural backing for such a statement. While searching ...read more
