Matthew 2:10,11
"When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother, Mary, and they bowed down and worshipped him. Then they opened their gifts of gold, incense and of myrrh." NIV
"When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy. And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh." KJV
The only requirement needed to come to Jesus Christ is the desire to find Him. Just like those who came to worship Him at his birth and early childhood, people from all walks of life can come freely: The poor and the rich; The wise and the simple; and The old and the young. The gift of God's only Son and the sacrifice of the cross makes eternal life free to all who call on His name.
Heavenly Father, forgive us that our human minds cannot grasp the fullness of love and gift of our Saviour, just what that cost. Even more amazing, for us it is free. Help us to let others know just what has been done for them as well. Give us loving hearts for everyone, no matter who they are, because You gave for everyone. In Jesus our Saviour's name, Amen.
