Jesus Grew Too
"Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men."Luke 2:52
Reflection
Jesus was a real child! He learned to read, helped at home, grew in size and in wisdom. He knows exactly what being your age is like.
Prayer
Jesus, thank You for having been a child like me. Amen!
Talk about it as a family
- What do you think Jesus was like as a child?
- Does Jesus understand what being your age is like?
- In which of the four ways do you want to grow: wisdom, size, with God or with people?
5-minute activity
Draw four boxes: wisdom, stature, God and people. In each one, the child writes or draws one way to grow this year. Talk about Jesus growing in all four. Read Luke 2:41-52.
