James 1:16-18 The wise men brought Jesus gifts that were the best of the best this world has to offer. But perhaps they brought something even more valuable than the gold which crowned Him King and the frankincense that called Him God and even the myrrh that foretold His suffering. Those gifts came hundreds of miles over barren wasteland on little more than an educated hunch. As kings, they could have sent servants. As wise men, they could have commissioned an envoy. But they didn’t. They slept in the cold, fought against the wind, and endured weeks of travel to come personally. They brought themselves to Jesus. How do we give ourselves to God this Christmas?
