Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:
LORD,
examine my heart and my mind.
I want to grow in my knowledge of you

Help me to have a pure heart
and mind before you.
I want to experience your presence
in my life.
Amen.

The Magi Visit the Messiah
After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea,
during the time of King Herod,
Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked,
“Where is the one
who has been born king of the Jews?
We saw his star when it rose
and have come to worship him.”
When King Herod heard this he was disturbed,
and all Jerusalem with him.
When he had called together all
the people’s chief priests and teachers of the law,
he asked them where the Messiah was to be born.
“In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied,
“for this is what the prophet has written:
“‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,
are by no means least among the rulers of Judah;
for out of you will come a ruler
who will shepherd my people Israel.
(Matthew 2:1-6 NIV)*
