Why did Matthew call them wise men and luke called them shepherds?

God put four Gospels in our bible to fill out the story of Jesus Christ. In the Gospel of Matthew we have the birth of Jesus and Matthew tells us about the wise men who came from the East to pay homage to the new born King. If we did not have the Gospel of Luke then we would only know of the Wise Men. But Luke fills in another portion of the birth of Jesus by telling us of the shepherds who came to see Jesus also and pay homage to Him in the manger as it was told to them by God. You see there were two groups of people who came to see Jesus, the new born King. First it was the shepherds who came to see Jesus on the night He was born and then some time later (less than two years as some say) the Wise men from the East came to see Jesus. They had traveled many, many miles taking many days and perhaps several months following a star that guided them to first Jerusalem and then to Bethlehem where Jesus was born. That is the difference the two Gospels show us to give us a bigger story.
