The Journey

These people took a journey to find something they had only heard in folklore. But something compelled them to move forward. The thing was a star and they began to follow it.

It led them far from home.

The Bible tells us they came from the East and were called wise men. Imagine the smartest people in the world at the time were following an astronomical phenomenon. Whatever was at the end of it had to be life changing.

Christian folklore sometimes refers to these wise men as kings using Isaiah 60 and Psalm 72. They also give them a racial identity making one from China, or India or Persia or even Africa.

Regardless of where they were from. They went somewhere. The star led them on a journey that changed everything.

Gentle Winter

/ Psal121 / Leave a comment

One of the things that make you appreciate gentleness are things that are harsh. There was a moment in last winter that was so rough we won’t forget it for a long time. It shut down parts of North Texas and crashed their electric grid. I remember it because I was there. The Ice was thick. The Air was cold. It was harsh.

It has definitely made me appreciate those winter days where the sun shines or there is a soft wind from the south. Sometimes hard things make us appreciate soft things.
