The third thing I want to tell you about what I have learned
from the wise men comes from what they did after they met Jesus and gave him
their gifts. In Matthew 2:12 is reads, “And being warned of God in a dream that
they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another
way.”
The wise men listen to the promptings of the Lord and they
went a different way home. Sometimes in our lives the Lord tries to tell us, or
warn us, of things pointing us to go in a different direction. It’s not always
easy to follow what the Lord tells us to do, but it is always for our good
and/or for the good of others around us. Next time you feel a prompting from
the Lord, even if it is pointing you in a direction you hadn’t planned on, follow
the Lord and all will be well in the end.
