In the one picture of the youthful years of Jesus we are given a glimpse into the home life of Joseph and Mary. Luke 2 shows us God's emphasis on the home and the importance of parents who want their children to grow in the knowledge of God.
(Matthew 13:31-32) All growth is not healthy. Bigger does not mean better. As Christ illustrates this truth by the grain of a mustard seed, He reminds us that not all the growth of Christendom is good and godly. (08110240507)
