Once upon a time God created the heavens and earth. He placed all the stars in the sky except one. The left out little star was terribly hurt, but God said “I’m not ready for you yet.” Thousands of years passed. Then one day God called upon the little star. The little star began to twinkle in anticipation. God placed the little star in the sky. The little star burst forth into a radiance which was more beautiful than any other star ever possessed. The little star led three wise men and the shepherds seeking the Child in the manger, and it beamed upon a stable in Bethlehem. ~ Rev. Richard Blanchard “…behold, the star that they had seen at its rising preceded them, until it came and stopped over the place where the Child was.” (Matthew 2:9)
