Where Did the Gifts Go?

I often wonder what happened to those gifts the Magi brought the child Jesus.  

Did the Holy Family keep them?  Barter with them?  Give them away?  

As I contemplated this at Mass last week, I felt God asking me a similar question in return.

He was asking what I did with all the gifts He gave me!

(Maybe I need to do less wondering and more works for Him!)

God Bless you.

One gift you have, Michael, which you are using every now and then, is writing these wonderful posts which make us all think seriously. Thank you for that.

Happy New Year and God bless.

I asked that very question years ago. Someone said they probably used it to to travel to and live in Egypt. Makes sense.
