The Christmas season is approaching, a celebration that holds significant meaning for many due to its connection to the birth of Jesus Christ. The Church highlights the account presented in the Gospel of Matthew, particularly in chapter 2, which describes the journey of the wise men, who were guided by a star in the east to meet the infant Jesus. One can imagine the physical exertion, discomfort, and fatigue they experienced, along with their faith, perseverance, and excitement as they carried extravagant gifts for a child who could offer nothing in return. This embodies the essence of true worship—abandoning oneself to worship with a pure and sacrificial heart, with no strings attached!
