Stop

They brought their best to him. They sought Jesus and didn’t stop until they found him. They worshiped him. This is the heart of the magi story. And…this should be the heart of our Christmas story as well.

Following Jesus should not be dependent on our circumstances. We should trust Him just as much in our success as in our failure.

He desires to pick up the heavy pack and carry it for you. God our Savior is the One who “daily bears our burdens!”

While there are things we don’t know about the wise men, here are the things we know for certain. These men made a great sacrifice to see Jesus. They traveled a great distance. They brought their best to him. They sought Jesus and didn’t stop until they found him. They worshiped him. That is the heart of the magi story. And…that should be the heart of our Christmas story as well.
