Gifts for the King
"And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh."Matthew 2:11
Reflection
They gave the best they had to a baby in a simple house. Worship is giving your best without demanding a beautiful setting.
Prayer
Jesus, I want to give You my best. Amen!
Talk about it as a family
- What gifts did the wise men bring?
- What is the best thing you could give Jesus?
- Does worship need a beautiful setting?
5-minute activity
Each person wraps a "gift for Jesus" in a sheet of paper: a drawing, a promise to help someone, or a memorized verse. Place them near the nativity scene. Read Matthew 2:9-11.
