Jesse Tree - December 23, 2020 - Day 25
Wednesday, December 23
“...Where is the newborn king of the Jews? We saw his star at its rising and have come to do him
homage.” Matthew 2:2
The three magi look for Jesus, guided by the light of a star, shining brightly above
his birthplace. They prostrate themselves before the manger and do not turn the
child and his parents over to King Herod. The white candle on today’s ornament
symbolizes Christ; the glow reminds us of the halo of light that signifies his
divinity and power. You will find the story in Matthew 2:1-12.
