Mid-Week Inspiration: Wednesday, December 28, 2022
Mystical Magi show up on the streets of Jerusalem, speaking of a star leading them to the arrival of a new king, creating chaos on the streets and strikes fear in the royal palace.
Tradition gives us three wise men. Yet, scripture says, “Wise men from the East came to Jerusalem.”
Their identity is somewhat of a mystery. They had no connection to the Jewish people. And yet, according to the story, they will travel many miles over treacherous terrain to worship the baby Jesus.
They follow the light. The light guides them through the darkness.
The best way to ensure 2023 gets off to a good start is to pay attention to God’s guiding light.
Where do you need the light of God to shine in your darkness? Follow the light of God’s love. It will never lead you astray.
