Where's Jesus
This past Sun, we had a speaker who opened up the sermon with a passage from Luke:
Luke 2:42-45 (NIV) When he was twelve years old, they went up to the Feast, according to the custom. After the Feast was over, while his parents were returning home, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem, but they were unaware of it. Thinking he was in their company, they traveled on for a day. Then they began looking for him among their relatives and friends. When they did not find him, they went back to Jerusalem to look for him.
Do we sometimes go about our life, doing ministry, thinking Jesus is with us, then all of the sudden we realize we've been doing it on our own. We lost Jesus along the way.
