Gifts

My beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, some theologians say that the Magi arrived around six days after Jesus's birth and the gifts that they brought were spiritual symbolism about Jesus himself—gold representing his kingship, frankincense a symbol of his priestly role, and myrrh a prefiguring of his death and embalming. Whatever the gifts symbolize, the worship they offered the King of Kings from bended knee and bowed head was of greater value than the material gifts. How will you worship the King of Kings and Lord of Lords? How can you thank God for the gift He gave to us?
