Of all the stories surrounding the birth of Jesus, one of my favorites has always been the journey of the Magi.
I love imagining these wise men traveling such a great distance, following a star in search of a King. Men of wealth, wisdom, and influence who set out on a journey to find someone greater than themselves. And when they finally found Him, they bowed down before a child and worshiped Him.
Not a king sitting on a throne in a magnificent palace, but a child. The King of Kings.
That contrast is what I find so beautiful about this part of the Christmas story. Their journey was one of faith, wonder, and the recognition that this child was worthy of their greatest gifts.
Journey to Bethlehem was inspired by that story and my love for imagining what that journey must have been like. My hope is that this artwork becomes a meaningful part of your Christmas traditions, a reminder of the wonder of that first Christmas and the King who came for us all.
