Magi
The Bible records three gifts being brought to Jesus around the time of his birth/early years. The dating isn't specific beyond that Jesus was less than two years old. These gifts, brought by the Magi, leaders and wise men from lands east of Judea, were their way of showing honour and respect. We don't know how many Magi came, it's not mentioned. Nor are their names. From our perspective, we can see that people of high standing, recognised portents and signs and acted upon them. They undertook a long, dangerous and arduous journey, in order to seek a child they believed was so important that his birth ushered in a new era of hope. We all need to make the same journey. That of faith, and in that faith to take all reasonable, and sometimes, completely unreasonable steps to find the truth of Jesus. To make the move from the comfort of our own preconceived belief and to seek with open hearts wisdom of who Jesus is. May you make the journey this year.
