They had to RETURN HOME=by

Another route=to avoid Herod=for they

Had been WARNED in a dream=not to

Go back to Herod=so

 

They went home=another way=for                                                                         

They were=IN GOD’S SERVICE=in the service

Of OUR Holy Father God!

The MAGI=were working=AT GOD’S SERVICE=

As we all are=when we DEDICATE our lives
