Luke 2: 51-52 ” Then He went down to Nazareth with them and was obedient to them. But His mother treasured all these things in her heart. And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.”

Even at twelve years old, Jesus had the plan and purpose for His life laid out in front of Him.  But He was also the young son of His parents, Mary and Joseph, and He honored them by His submission and obedience.  Many times in our own life we’ll encounter situations that we just don’t understand, but we know they’re of the Lord.  That’s when we submit anyway…we obey anyway…we honor anyway.
