Matt 2:1-2 We have seen His star
I have a sign I put out during Christmas time near a nativity scene that says, Wise Men Still Seek Him. The wise men in the Christmas story noticed a change in the atmosphere. These three wise men were seekers. There was a new star in the sky, and they asked where is he who is born to be King of the Jews? My first question is how would they know that the star for for a baby, and my second question would be, how did they know who He was? No internet, phone system, not even Morse Code. God put a sign in the sky, and they knew it meant something spectacular was taking place. They started a journey to see this one, and their whole intention was to worship Him. Worship is a lifestyle, and we can worship anywhere, but most of the time we think worship happens at church. If we took the same approach as the wise men toward seeking God in the sanctuary, we wouldn’t just haphazardly saunter into church after the first couple of songs were done. We would be the first ones there, ready to worship, because we had lived a life of worship during the week. Wise men today are seekers. In fact, they seek God first. They don’t lean on their own understanding, but they have God on the top of their list. During this season of Advent, determine to be a seeker. Seek God with your whole heart, and you will find Him, and be found in Him.
