Just Wise (Enough) Men
Those three kings have never impressed me much.
I think it’s all those Sunday School watered down stories as a kid…I always thought those “three men” took away from the story about Mary birthing in a stable….and I mean, didn’t they show up three years later? Why give them their own song?
On Sunday night.… I heard it with new ears. I heard the *ping*…and I confused, thought, “this song?”
Yes.. they were some of the few who could interpret their surroundings
Gather the signs…. amongst them a star which *pinged* in them purpose.
To Receive through their surroundings.
and then
to Keep Moving.
They were just Wise enough to be Willing to Show up.
All just to Worship.
I want to be found Wise~Enough.
Listen to the song with new ears….
not listening to the words…but to the journey….
to the anthem of one seeking to Worship.

Thank you, I never stopped to consider the story quite like this, worth pondering. Loved the song track too.
Oh good.
I love how the piano is like my great grandmothers…I can remember playing it and it had a “tinny” sound.

Thank you for giving me new ears for this old song. And the painting is beautiful. That long narrow format is perfect for it.
Thank you… I needed more space…lol…so I am glad I used my long paper.

I love your painting. I thought several times of painting the wise men. I have to laugh at myself! I thought I was clicking on the music and watched a whole commericial on Italian coffee makers before I realized I was in the wrong plave! But then I listened to the music…”Still proceeding…”
See I am a shepherd person myself… until I heard that song I never really cared for the three wise men.

Beautiful one!
Happy Holidays!
