In ancient days, in the far East, there were wise men who watched the stars night and day. One day, a specially bright new star appeared in the sky! The wise men knew this was the sign of something great — a great baby King had been born. Carrying their most precious gold, frankincense, and myrrh, they rode their camels and followed the star on the long journey to Jerusalem. Eventually, the star led them to the home of the baby Jesus. The wise men bowed down and worshipped Him, presented their best gifts, and — listening to God's word — went home safely by another way.
The Magi traveled from the East, following the star, to find Jesus and presented their most precious gifts to Him. Their story tells us that Jesus is worth everything we have to seek and worship. True wisdom is not having much knowledge, but knowing Jesus and loving Jesus. We can also, like the Magi, give our best—time, talents, and love—to Jesus, worshipping Him with our lives.
