JOSEPH, and Mary the mother of Jesus, stayed in Bethlehem for a while. When Jesus was only eight days old he received his name; he was called "Jesus," as the angel had told Mary. It was the custom of the Jews to take their first son to the temple and present him to God, so Joseph and Mary went to Jerusalem to present Jesus to God in the temple. Try to be like Jesus. The Bible tells of Jesus, So gentle and so meek; I'll try to be like Jesus In ev'ry word I speak. For Jesus, too, was loving, His words were always kind; I'll try to be like Jesus In thought and word and mind. I long to be like Jesus, Who said "I am the Truth;" Then I will give my heart to him, Now, in my early youth. —Lillian Payson.
