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.
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 phenomena. Whatever was at the end of it had to be life changing.
Christian folklore sometimes refer 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.
Everyone needs encouragement, especially parents. We rely on each other to get us through the terrible twos, the middle school maladies, and teenage anguish. It is all of the people around us who make us successful.
We are looking for good parenting advice. You can give it on Infants, Toddlers, Elementary, Middle School, High School or Adult Children. You can post this advice on one of three social media sites UPP Creative, on FB, Instagram, or Twitter.
The advice will be judged based on likes and comments. The best advice will win a copy of my book, How to Raise God Wise Kids, An inspirational notebook with a 12 month calendar from The Krown Kollection, and a cute 15 oz ceramic campfire mug in Christmas Mint with white Prepare Him Room lettering.
This will be great quiet time material for any parent. Share. Repost. #parentingtips, #parentingadvice, #helping #village
My work covers five areas. History. Faith. Cultural Diversity. Impact. Justice and Fairness.
Fashion + History
