Do you know what would have happened if it had been Three
Wise Women instead of Three Wise Men?
They would have asked directions,
arrived on time
helped deliver the baby,
cleaned the stable,
made a casserole, and,
brought practical gifts.
Pass it on to the wise women in your life!!
But here is what REALLY would have happened:
They would have first gone to the beauty salon,
had a wash,
set,
and manicure,
then home to pick out a proper outfit.
Then they would have changed the outfit 5 times,
called everybody they knew to talk about the trip,
and arrived late -- VERY LATE!
Actually, they probably wouldn't have arrived at all --
halfway to the oasis, the camel would have broken down
because no one remembered to check his water level!
Unbeknownst to most theologians, there was a fourth wiseman, who was turned away for bringing a fruitcake.
