Hebrews 12:1-2

Did you know that the wise men who came to see the Christ child probably traveled 800-900 miles to see Him? Not an easy task. For the journey took preparation, provisions, and a commitment of weeks, months, and maybe even years. Yet to find the Lord was the race set before them. A race they ran in joyful anticipation of looking upon the face of God. We too are called to the same race. A race of endurance, patience, and faith. One that requires us to lay down worldly living, and run whole heartedly for the Lord. It won’t be easy, and it won’t be a sprint. But when we remember all Jesus endured for us, it makes the race not just bearable, but joyful. For the Lord suffered pain, sorrow, betrayal, and rejection. All for the joy of seeing us restored to the Father and giving us the greatest gift of all, eternity spent at His side. And how can we not rejoice for that?

December 7th – Matthew 2:11

Matthew 2:11

When you set out to find God’s truth, He will reveal it to you in magnificent ways. Just look at the wise men. Knowing the Old Testament prophecy about the birth of the promised Savior, when they saw the Star of Bethlehem, they set out in search of the Messiah. Following the star in the east, led them to the child King. Because of their faith and belief in His Word, God rewarded them greatly by allowing them to see the Child, Jesus Christ, Redeemer of the world. And in response, they fell to their feet in worship and thanks.
