Guided by the Spirit

Have you ever wondered what questions 12-year-old Jesus asked the priests at the temple? Were they about the significance of the holy days he and his parents had attended? Or maybe he questioned them about some of the Sabbath restrictions he didn’t find in the Torah. His parents had told him about the circumstances surrounding his birth, therefore he knew he was special to God. So I’m wondering if he might have asked the religious leaders about the long-awaited messiah. Whatever he asked they were astounded at his perceptive questions. The Holy Spirit was guiding his young mind to more fully understand who he was.
