From today’s reading...
After Jesus had been born at Bethlehem in Judaea during the reign of King Herod, suddenly some wise men came to Jerusalem from the east asking, ‘Where is the infant king of the Jews? We saw his star as it rose and have come to do him homage.’” Matthew 2:1-2
The wise men knew their scripture.
They knew how to interpret the signs.
They were disciplined in remaining vigilant.
They were productive in doing what it took to acquire the gifts for their tribute to Jesus.
They were committed in making the journey to honor Jesus once they knew His time had come.
Be like the wise men, which is the only way to...
Stay the course.
Keep the faith.
Endure.
Now go sell something.
