We have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.



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.
