The Wise Men had spent the last two years following a star (Matt. 2:7,16). Along the way they probably faced perils and obstacles. The star stops over a humble house. Maybe they expected the Messiah to be in a palace because they had inquired of King Herod first.
Matthew 2:10-11 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy. And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.
The Wise Men found the King of kings in the home of a peasant, probably nothing more than a shack, and in that humble setting their lives were changed. It wasn't what they expected, but they came to worship and worship they did. They saw God in that shack. They saw God in Jesus.
These wise men received far more than they gave away. That’s the way it is with God. We can never out give Him. Not very many try, but those who do discover His abundant supply for every need and blessings--stacked up and running over. God is good.
