When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy.
MATTHEW 2:10, ESV

“Worshiping Jesus means joyfully ascribing authority and dignity to Christ with sacrificial gifts.
We ascribe ( credit, attribute, attach ) to him. We don’t add to him.
God is not served by human hands as though he needed anything (Acts 17:25).
