Happy Independence Day!

In honor of 4th of July, Independence Day, I am re-posting a very old story of the Day I became a United States Citizen.

Come and revisit that unforgettable day with me!

The Wisest King

One true king knew when to step aside and give up the reins of power-to remove his crown and relinquish his kingdom-all for the sake of glimpsing, just once in a lifetime, the face of a holy child.

He was the Fourth to follow the Star.

His gift was a secret.

The rest of his journey is unknown.
