We have the almost unimaginable opportunity to be called friends of God and, to facilitate this, He has given us the assurance that He has shared in—and can relate to—all of the pain and hardship we as human beings endure in this life.

A Different Kind of Treasure
Matthew 2:11
The journey the “Wise men” from the East took to worship the Christ child is similar to the journey that we each take in coming to Him. The gifts they brought inform us as to the things in our hearts that we should be willing to give to Him.
Rev. Anthony Woods, thank you for your message of encouragement.
Your illustration of the children offering their gifts, reminded me of
Matt. 19:14. Our younger generation has a lot to offer. Christmas blessings
to all.
