Morning by Morning, December 22 - "We Have Seen His Star!"
Good morning, Lord Jesus. I come and adore You, Christ the King. ...
"Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him" (Matthew 2:2).
Last night we looked up into the night sky to see what they call "the Christmas Star." It was a rare and beautiful visual convergence of the two planets Jupiter and Saturn, not seen this close together since the middle ages. Some wonder if it was what the wise men saw that led them to Bethlehem two thousand years ago.
Every night we look up into the skies, we can't help but declare Your praise. "The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands!" (Psalm 19:1) O come let us adore Him!
Just as those planets converged to shine like a star, Lord, let Your Spirit converge in our hearts to shine with the light of the glory of God through us. As Your Word declares, with Christ in our hearts as "children of God" we "shine like stars in the world" even in "the midst of a crooked and perverse generation" (Philippians 2:15). Lord, let Your kingdom converge in our world, as heaven invades earth, as Your kingdom comes and Your will is done in our hearts and in our world, on earth as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10).
The wise men looked up to see Your star shining in the sky. Now by the grace of God at work within us, may the world look and see Your star shining in us. "Christ in us, the hope of glory" (Colossians 1:27). In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
