Matthew, Chapter 2. It says here: 'When Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of King Herod, some Magi came from the East to Jerusalem saying: "Where is the King of the Jews who was born? Because his star we have seen in the East and we come to adore him ". Hearing this, King Herod was troubled and all Jerusalem with him and summoned all the chief priests and scribes of the people asked them where the Christ was to be born. And summoned all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he asked 'Where was the Christ to be born?'

"They said to him: In Bethlehem of Judea, because this is written by the prophet and you Bethlehem of the land of Judah, you are not the smallest among the princes of Judah because a guide will come from you who will feed my people Israel. Then Herod secretly summoned the magicians and inquired diligently about the time of the appearance of the star. And sending them to Bethlehem he said: "Go there and find out diligently about the child and when you find him let me know so that I also go and adore him."

"They having heard the King went and behold the star they had seen in the East went before them until they came to a stop where the child was. Upon seeing the star they rejoiced with great joy and upon entering the house they saw the child with his mother Mary and prostrating they adored him. And opening their treasures they offered him presents: gold, incense and myrrh. But being warned by revelation in dreams that they did not return to Herod, they returned to their land by another path. '

As in this case God always takes us through journeys in our Christian life and those trips require faith. These men were not sure of all the details, they had had revelation from God, I have no idea if they used scientific instruments of their time to get maybe some coordinates. But they had to exercise faith all the way, God had not given them all the details, and many times in our lives God sends us or sends us to these trips but without many details and we all need a lot of faith to undertake that journey, which Many times we encounter obstacles and adverse circumstances, but we simply have to follow the path of Faith.

"Walk that I'm going to provide all the details on the road"

It is important that we understand that the salvation and revelation of God does not depend on perfect knowledge of having all the correct theology, these achievements are not part of our wisdom or knowledge, it is about God seeking our heart, we do not have to be perfect in our walking, but God sees the desire of our heart, the intention to know him better, the desire to please him, our efforts, although sometimes awkward but He sees is the intention.

And the Lord is willing to guide us little by little towards a better knowledge of Him. But what He wants is that we begin the journey, that we begin where we are and how we are and He will guide us to the perfect place where His Son is perfectly manifested .
