π Still Awake?
Every evening, one step closer to Jesus.

β Searching for the King
π Matthew 2:1β2
βWhere is He who has been born King of the Jews? We saw His star in the East and have come to worship Him.β
Matthew 2:2
Every journey begins with a question.
For the wise men, it was:
βWhere is the newborn King?β
They were not looking for a palace.
Not for treasure.
Not for fame.
They were looking for Jesus.
That fascinates me.
They had never seen Jesus before.
They knew very little about Him.
And yet they set out on the journey.
Why?
Because they were convinced that this search would change their lives.
We too are searching every day.
For recognition.
For success.
For friendship.
For happiness.
But the most important question is:
What am I truly searching for?
The wise men remind us that the greatest goal of our lives is not a place.
It is a Person.
Jesus.
Those who seek Him will not always find every answer immediately.
But they will find the One who is the answer.
Perhaps this is the most important decision for today:
Do not stop seeking Jesus.
For He allows Himself to be found.
π Think About It
What are you searching for most at the moment?
And is that search leading you closer to Jesus?
π Prayer
Dear Father,
thank You that I am allowed to seek You.
Give me a heart that is not satisfied with things that pass away.
Help me to seek Jesus anew each day and follow Him.
Lead me along the path You have prepared for me.
Amen.
π Sleep well.
Your loving Father rejoices over every step you take toward Jesus.
See you tomorrow.
