Conclusion of Jesus Always Ob\eyed

When Jesus was only 12 years old, he did something that showed how much he loved his Father, Jehovah.  This happened when Jesus and his family made a long trip to Jerusalem for the Passover. On the way back home, Joseph and Mary could not find Jesus anywhere. Do you know  where he was?- 

Joseph and Mary hurried back to Jerusalem and looked for Jesus everywhere. They were very worried because they could not find him. But after three days, the found him in the temple!   Do you know why Jesus was in the temple?-  Because there he could learn about his Father, Jehovah.  He loved Jehovah and wanted to learn how to please him. Even when he grew up and became a man, Jesus always obeyed Jehovah. Jesus obeyed even when this was hard for him and it meant that he had to suffer. Did Jesus also obey Joseph and Mary? -Yes, the Bible says that he did.

What can you learn from Jesus ' example?- you need to obey your parents, even when it is hard.  Will you do that?  Read in the Bible: Luke 1:30-35; 2:45-52; Ephesians 6:1; Hebrews 5:8.
