Why Were You Searching For Me?

I’m getting ready to go “get my swole on!” I’m trying to lose a little weight and build some muscles at the same time, so two-a-day workouts take up a lot of time. Anyways, before I run out of April, I wanted to share this thought that popped into my head.

“Why were you searching for me?” ^[1]

I hear a lot about people looking for Jesus, looking for proof, looking for fruit. Honestly, I think many of us are just looking for validation of our beliefs. Why are we looking for him? Don’t we know where he is? And if we don’t, can telling us help us to find him any easier?

I know, it probably isn’t a satisfactory thought for many, but this is what strikes my fancy. Jesus questions his parents, the two mortals who have reportedly witnessed more than anyone on earth about the miraculous call on his life, on why they had to search for him and why they wouldn’t know where to find him.

So, the question is, are you searching? And if you are, why?
