Luke 2:49 And he said to them, How is it that you sought me? knew you not that I must be about my Father's business? What a lesson for all young people! You think you need not begin serving God just yet. You have plenty of years before you. How do you know that? Do people never die young — suddenly, without warning? Begin at once to redeem the time. Say to yourself each morning-" My soul, thou hast to-day a God to glorify, a Christ to imitate, a soul to save, a body to keep under, time to redeem, temptation to overcome — verily, I must be about my Father's business." (Dean Goulburn.) Parallel Verses KJV: And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?WEB: He said to them, "Why were you looking for me? Didn't you know that I must be in my Father's house?" |
