Reflection: This scene weaves together majesty and humility. Kings bow before the infant Jesus, beautifully reflecting Jesus’ words: “The first will be last, and the last will be first” (Matthew 20:16). Though the Magi were esteemed in the eyes of the world, they laid their treasures at the feet of a child born in poverty, acknowledging him as the King of Kings.
God calls us to reorder our priorities. Are we putting Christ first in our hearts, or are we clinging to worldly distractions? By humbling themselves, the Magi found their true treasure in Jesus.
