Wise Men Seek & Find

Life's journey often is long, lonely and troubled. By keeping our eyes on our destination and our mind on our goal, we are more apt to reach the end with success.

Some 2,000 years ago, a small group of men traveled quite some distance to follow a sign. It might have taken them upwards to three years to reach their destination. They were determined and motivated not to quit looking. Mile after mile, danger after danger, they continued their course.

In Matthew 2:1, it describes this group as "wise men" coming from the east to Jerusalem.

They were looking for "him that is born King of the Jews."

As it was those 20 centuries ago where the wise men were looking for Jesus, so even today wise men still seek Jesus.

Have a good day!
Love,

Be wise...

But from thence ye shall seek Jehovah thy God, and thou shalt find him, when thou searchest after him with all thy heart and with all thy soul. (Deuteronomy 4:29)

I love them that love me; And those that seek me diligently shall find me.
(Proverbs 8:17)

And ye shall call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
(Jeremiah 29:12-13)

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: for every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
(Matthew 7:7-8)

And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
(Luke 11:9-10)
