Day 6 (Christmas Eve)

Day 6 - Worship by Magi: 

The story of the Magi is so special because they are the first people who are described explicitly as worshiping Jesus.  They traveled a long way.  They came with gifts.  When they saw baby Jesus, they were overjoyed.  They bowed down and worshiped.  What a wonderful way to describe worship in the presence of the King of kings.

Scriptures:

Matthew2:1-11

Reflection:

Joy and celebration are a vital feature of worship.  We should expect to experience joy when we are worshiping God.  How do we worship in the presence of the King of kings?

Pray: 

Father, thank you for letting us hear the story of the Magi who knelt before Jesus with devotion and rich gifts.  May You help us to worship You with a heart of longing like the Magi.  In Your holy name, we pray.  Amen.
