Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says: “Children, today, I invite you to contemplate the anguish of the Holy Mother* as She and St. Joseph searched for the Child Jesus for three days before finding Him in the Temple. What joy and peace must have flooded the Holy Mother's Heart when She at last laid eyes on Him! The Holy Mother rejoices in a similar way when She finds one of you, My children, engaged in good work and edifying those whom you encounter. It is then, the warmth of your response to those around you floods Her Heart, as well. Moments such as these are deserving of Her eternal embrace.”

Read Luke 2:41-51+

The Boy Jesus in the Temple

Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the Passover. And when he was twelve years old, they went up according to custom; and when the feast was ended, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. His parents did not know it, but supposing him to be in the company they went a day's journey, and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintances; and when they did not find him, they returned to Jerusalem, seeking him. After three days they found him in the temple, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions; and all who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers. And when they saw him they were astonished; and his mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us so? Behold, your father and I have been looking for you anxiously.” And he said to them, “How is it that you sought me? Did you not know that I must be in my Father's house?” And they did not understand the saying which he spoke to them. And he went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was obedient to them; and his mother kept all these things in her heart.
