Scripture Challenge - Days 34, 35, and 36 :)

Day 34 - Matthew 2:1-23

The story of the 3 wise men, their travel to meet baby Jesus and present him with gifts.

Day 35 - Luke 2:41-52

The story of when Jesus was 12, his parents losing site of him when they went to Jerusalem for Passover.  Love these verses:

Verse 49, "'But why did you need to search?" He asked. "Didn't you know that I must be in my Father's house?'"
Verse 52, "Jesus grew in wisdom and in stature and in favor with God and all the people."

So amazing!

Day 36 - Matthew 3:1-17

The story of John the Baptist and his baptizing of those who have repented, with the water of the Jordan River.  Verses 13-17 speak of the baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist.

Verse 16, "After his baptism, as Jesus came up out of the water, the heavens were opened and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and settling on him."

Verse 17, "And a voice from heaven said, "This is my dearly loved Son, who brings me great joy.'"

Such good stuff!!
