Wise men seek him still

Every year my family goes back to our "old" church for the Christmas Eve candlelight service and I am usually bombarded by throngs of old ladies I don't remember.
anyways, before the message/sermon started a few talented people played piano and sang and such.

well, the music ministers son, Kealen played a song on his guitar and sang a song he wrote himself, it was very good by the way.


GET TO THE POINT, ANNA.


anyways, before he played and sang, he gave a short story of why he wrote it and he said he was so amazed that the three kings would leave their own kingdom to worship a different king.

I was like,

WOAH, WHAT?


I'm such an idiot, I had never thought of it like that before.
I've always just been like

mary, joseph; check.
baby Jesus; check
shepherds abiding in the field; check
three kings; check

oh, they're all there. there you go.
I never thought about it that way.

They had to leave their own kingdoms, to worship a child in a manager.
that's amazing to me

Three kings traveled hundreds of miles to visit a child who is also a king.
kind of mind blowing for me.

Surely, he must be King of Kings.
