Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh: What happened to the Gifts? - The Incarnation - Bk4 - Ch18

  • Summary

  • The Venerable Sister Mary of Jesus of Ágreda describes how the Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Joseph distributed the gifts received from the Magi, and how they remained in Bethlehem until their departure for the Presentation at the Temple of the infant Jesus. Our Queen Mary tells us how the Holy Family saw money as a burden and provides a warning saying, "My daughter, by the divine light I knew, better than all other creatures, at what a low value the Most High esteems earthly blessings and riches. Therefore, in my holy liberty of spirit, I felt myself troubled and inconvenienced by the possession of the treasures of the Kings offered to my most holy Son. As in all my deeds I was to shine in humility and obedience, I did not wish to appropriate them to myself, nor dispose of them according to my own will, but according to the wishes of my spouse Joseph. In this resignation I managed to act as if I were his handmaid and as if none of these gifts concerned me in any way; for it is debasing, and for you, weak creatures, very dangerous to appropriate or attribute any of the goods of the earth, be they of material possessions or goods of honor; for all this cannot be done without covetousness, ambition and vain ostentation."
