Passion for Praise: 'Overcome!'

Sunday, December 28, 1947

[The Magi] could hardly contain themselves: They were in the right place! They had arrived at the right time! They entered the house and saw the child in the arms of Mary, his mother. Overcome, they kneeled and worshiped him. Then they opened their luggage and presented gifts: gold, frankincense, myrrh.
— Matthew 2:10-11 MESSAGE
