Being Wise

We read from Matthew 1:1-12 at MCC today and Amy encouraged us to imagine we were the Magi in the story. These wealthy, educated, sincere seekers of truth studied astronomy and searched the skies for answers. We can learn from the Magi by observing how they sought the truth:

1. They were so serious about seeking the truth that they traveled about 900 miles in search of the King whose star they saw in the sky.
2. They didn't wait for Jesus to come to them.
3. They committed themselved to a King who humbled Himself (was born in a manger.)
4. By bowing down to present Him with their gifts, the wisemen acknowledged that Jesus is the King of their whole life.

This Advent season, let's be in active seeking mode like the wisemen to learn how to worship Him more fully.

Question of the Week: What does "worship fully" look like in your life?
