We have seen his star in the east, and are come to
worship him. Matthew 2:2
One of my favorite childhood decorations was a piece of
plywood with cut- out stars of different sizes that fit over the entire front
door. Behind each cut- out star was
colored cellophane paper with bright lights shining behind them. You could see those twinkling stars from the
highway!
To this day, it reminds me of the many stars in my life
that come in different shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities. This past week alone I have been blessed by
star builders at IHN, wrapping stars at Potter's House, morning prayer stars,
college students shining on campuses, elves preparing for children's party, and
the littlest angel in the camp sunshine Christmas play.
During this advent season, while we eagerly await the star that shone bright
at Jesus birth, perhaps you can find a
way this Christmas season to make someone else's world a little brighter.
