Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary1 Kings 19:19-21
Elisha gets up and follows Elijah. Elisha recognizes in Elijah a man who listens to God.
Let us remain listening to God.
Luke 2:41-51
“Why were you looking for me?”
The question of seeking is found throughout the Bible. And Jesus’ first words are a question. Why are you looking for me?
It is like a fish in the sea seeking water. It is surrounded by water. We are filled with God’s love.
Let us meditate on what is beautiful, good, right, true, just, and real, and on God’s love, joy, and peace within us, and we will find God.
