Matthew 2:1-18
Everyone must respond to the birth of Christ. Like Herrod, many are angry at the lordship of Christ. Like the scribes, many are apathetic, having head knowledge of Jesus but no heart affection for HIm. And still others, like the wise men respond in joy, awe, and worship. How will you respond to the birth of Christ this Christmas?
Each year around this time, we enter into a season of anticipation and celebration. While the circumstances of this Christmas season may be less than ideal, what we celebrate is still something to behold -- Jesus Christ, the Light of the World, came into the world, and just like Mary, Joseph, the shepherds, and eventually the wisemen, we get to respond!
