Behold the Gift of His Humanity

The magi’s gift of myrrh foreshadowed Jesus’ suffering and death for our salvation. Jesus came to reach us from our sin, wrap us in His love, and release us from death. Just as Jesus chose to endure pain wrapped in the Father’s love on the cross, we are called to trust in God’s love in our darkest moments, resisting the urge to escape and instead remain hopeful.
