A Reflection on the Christmas Story

Whatever happened to the gold, frankincense, and myrrh, anyway? Sold to buy diapers for baby Jesus? Used to bribe soldiers to get across the border into Egypt? I mean, they're really not practical gifts for either a newborn or a budding family.

Heh. That's the "good" news... myrrh has one use, and everyone gets to use it.

That's my favorite verse of "We Three Kings" as well.
