Scripture: Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man. – Luke 2:52
Mornings with God Devotional 20 October 2022 Message
The little that is told us of the first thirty years of the life of Jesus is very suggestive. We have only a few glimpses, but they are full of meaning.
The record of the first twelve years is all comprised in one sentence: “The Child grew, and waxed strong, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon Him.” He grew as other children grow. There was nothing precocious about Him.
At twelve years of age He went to His first Passover.
Then the record of the following eighteen years is told in another single sentence: “Jesus advanced in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.” We know that He was subject to His parents, thus teaching a great lesson which every child ought to learn.
We know that He was a carpenter. People often wonder that He wrought no miracles in those years; but miracles are not the only revealings of divineness. The divinest thing in life is to live sweetly, patiently, unselfishly, obediently, in plain and holy ways.
