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.
