What would prompt someone to leave the comfort of home to go on a dangerous journey? Romance? Yes. Wealth? Most definitely. But faith? Yes, even faith. "Where is the newborn king of the Jews?" What a probing question! There is no doubt in their language that He had been born. The question is “Where is He?” They had seen the star. The evidence was real…Now where is He? They had faith that He was alive – that He existed. Now all they needed to do was to find Him.

Their purpose was established – find Him. And so they were willing to risk everything to find Him. They were willing to leave the safety of their homes to risk a perilous journey to seek a King. This was their Wisdom-Trek.
