There came wise men from the east saying, “where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to adore him.” Matthew 2:2

Humble innocent son of God, savior of the world. But, was it not he, who adored his father’s children who would one day deny him? and yet, did his adoration ever cease?

Patsy, 2017
