While Joseph and Mary and their neighbors were traveling home after Passover Week in Jerusalem, they suddenly realized that 12 year-old Jesus was not in the group of travelers. Are you on life’s journey without Jesus? Make sure Jesus is with you wherever you venture. The distance between them and Jesus was unintentional. “they were filled… therefore have they forgotten me. (Hosea 13: 6). When we’re full is when we forget and leave Jesus behind. Beware of supposing. He’s always been there. We suppose He’ll follow us. We go through life supposing Jesus is with us, following us but we’re supposed to follow Him.
