“Herod was furious when he learned that the wise men had outwitted him. He sent soldiers to kill all the boys in and around Bethlehem who were two years old and under, because the wise men had told him the star first appeared to them about two years earlier.”   Matthew 1: 16

I hadn’t realized that the reason Herod killed all the boys under 2 years old was because the wise men hod told him the star first appeared to them about two years earlier. What a planner God is! He put the star in the sky for others to see and take action “about 2 years” before Jesus was born!

It is so easy for us to take the short view of history. But God takes the long view.
