Summary: Do you set up a nativity scene in your house each Christmas? There are typically the usual characters - Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus. Usually a few farm animals and shepherds. Sometimes our nativities also include wise men. But did you know that history tells us the Wise Men actually didn't make it to Jesus until he was a couple of years old? I think in many ways that makes the story even more remarkable! They were so determined to find Jesus that they would not rest until they found him. Do you have that same passion to seek Jesus? I love the saying, "Wise men still seek him." The wise men of the Bible were wise because they knew Jesus was Lord and sought after him. Are you wise? Are you seeking Jesus with the same passion and determination of the first wise men? The Bible says the wise men sought Jesus to "worship Him." They traveled many miles. And when they arrived, "they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy," and, "fell down and worshipped him." What a great example of wisdom for us all! Are you seeking Jesus, and falling down to worship Him?Share the Christmas story with someone this week. You'll be amazed how God uses you to reach your world during this time of celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ.
