And when they had come into the house, they saw a young child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
How very wonderful and truly marvelous Lord that You use many means to draw quasi-pagans to You. A prophecy, a star, a wonder drawing all people of various religions who do not understand Your divine nature. The longing You place in our hearts that only You the creator of them can satisfy. Father, I pray for those who are still wandering in the desert following after seducing spirit or listening to lying tongues to hearken to the sound of Your voice saying "Come to Me all You who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest. May today be the day of making room in their hearts, coming and bowing down to worship You the King of kings and Lord of lords. Father, You know my simple sincere heart is all that I have to offer and lay at Your feet but with great joy I rejoice exceedingly for You have delivered me from captivity. I believe You can do it again and again and again in those around me as it is Your good pleasure to do so. What joy in heaven to behold the worldly wise, spiritually poor, and the curious coming into Your house bowing down to worship You Jesus, the Messiah. In this season of packages, ribbons and bows may we remember the golden strand. Christ holds together the royal tapestry of truth. Jesus You are the way to life, one that is more abundant and without charge. As the dust settles from the flurry of holiday hoo-ha may we turn our attention solely back to You the lover of our souls. Thank You Lord for bringing light into the dark world illuminating our way to eternity. I love You Lord, and am forever grateful,
