4. MARY - CONCERN


4. MARY - CONCERN
SEEK GOD’S WORD FOR TRUTH
Read the following passage:
LUKE 2:41-51
 
What annual event took the family to Jerusalem?
When did Mary and Joseph leave Jerusalem?
 
What were they unaware of and why?
 
Describe their search.
 
Upon finding Jesus, what did Mary say to her son? What did her son say to her?
 

We are told that Mary and Joseph didn’t understand what Jesus said to them. What is Mary’s response to all that happened?
 
FIND GOD’S WAYS FOR YOU
 
Describe a time when, as a child, you were not where you were supposed to be. How did you feel?
 

How did your parents react?
 

Read the following passage:
 
 
Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” So we may boldly say: “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?”


HEBREWS 13:5-6
There are all kinds of fear. Children may fear their parents when they have been disobedient; parents fear for the safety of their children, etc. What confidence does a child of God have when facing frightening circumstances?
 
STOP AND PONDER
You will keep him in perfect peace,
Whose mind is stayed on You,
Because he trusts in You.
Trust in the Lord forever,
For in YAH, the Lord, is everlasting strength.

ISAIAH 26:3-4

Where do you place your confidence?
