In what areas shall we grow up, especially for children? Luke tells us - in 3 areas of wisdom, stature, and favor with God and man.
Lessons
- Live with Purpose:
- Like Boy Jesus, we should know and live according to our calling.
- Grow in Wisdom
- Go to the right environment such as school, temple, learning groups
- Learn from teachers & others
- Ask questions
- Grow in Stature
- Physical growth
- Give time for growth
- Spiritual & Character
- Putting our learning into actions
- Character is developed over time with practices
- Honoring Elders
- Honoring our parents is based on seniority in a relationship and not on wisdom or wealth or any other factors.
- The Check - Favor with God & Men
- Understand that true wisdom leads to respect and favor from both God and people, fostering a well-rounded and respected character.
To understand wisdom better, please see: Wisdom for Living Well - Proverbs 30(3)
