Star

As I was listening to the sermon in the Christmas Eve service tonight, something dawned on me. I was looking around the sanctuary, and I saw many stars. This reminded me of the star in the sky the night Jesus Christ was born. I believe in only one of the gospels, specifically in Matthew 2: 2-10, a star rose all across Bethlehem, and people from the east saw it. These people knew that Jesus Christ was born.. because a star shone brightly in the night sky. And so they traveled toward the star until they saw their Savior Jesus Christ, and worshiped him.

Tonight as I was driving back from a family gathering, I looked up into the sky. The first thing I saw was a shooting star. I was in such awe that I kept staring at the sky. After looking at the sky for about ten minutes, I noticed a star that shone brighter than all the others. The more I looked at the star, the more it looked exactly like The Cross. God's existence is everywhere, and I am seeing that more and more everyday. God proved Himself to me tonight by creating a star out of the shape of The Cross, and made it the brightest star in the sky. And not only that, he had a shooting star fly across the sky in order for me to notice the bright star. God is amazing, and I am so grateful. Jesus Christ is Born, and we are finally free of sin. God asks us to love Jesus. And when we love Jesus, our sins are no longer accounted for. Praise God, for our Savior Is Born!
