A verse for 12/7/12




Mat 2:1  Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem,
Mat 2:2  saying, "Where is he who has been born king of the Jews? For we saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him."
Mat 2:3  When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him;
Mat 2:4  and assembling all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born.
Mat 2:5  They told him, "In Bethlehem of Judea, for so it is written by the prophet:

Why didn’t the wise men just keep on following the star? Why did they have to ask for directions? They most likely came from a long way off with the confidence that they could find their way by the star. God has a plan and He will work it out the way He wants it to go, and we may not understand why but rest in the fact that He is in control. God had a reason for the wise to stop at Jerusalem, and God has a plan for whatever you are going through today.
