> When they had heard the King, they departed; and, Lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.
When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.

> — Matthew 2:9-10 KJV

## Written prayer

Dear Lord, finding the child the prophets foretold of must have been an epic experience for those wise men. They knew a deliver was coming to save Israel, and when the star appeared, it was their sign. They followed it as it moved across the sky until it perched over the stable where Jesus was born. What an exceedingly joyous event it must have been, to come face to face with prophetic destiny. Lord, help me never take my faith and what Jesus did for me for granted. His birth, death and resurrection are the good news that is easily trampled by the commercialism of Christmas. Keep me humble with a kind words to share with others. Amen.
