day no. 15,079: private, personal and public

Luke 2:52
Jesus increased in wisdom and in stature and in favor with God and man.

God has called men to grow and increase privately in wisdom, personally in stature and publicly in favor with God and other people.

Wisdom concerns the inner person.
Stature concerns the outer person.
Favor concerns the interpersonal.

Wisdom looks inside the body.
Stature looks to the body.
Favor looks outside to everybody else.

Wisdom is private.
Stature is personal.
Favor is public.
