Day 336 – Looking for Your Guiding Star
Having a Heart in a Sometimes Heartless World
Having a Heart in a Sometimes Heartless World
Scripture focus: After Jesus was born in Bethlehem village, Judah territory— this was during Herod's kingship—a band of scholars arrived in Jerusalem from the East. They asked around, "Where can we find and pay homage to the newborn King of the Jews? We observed a star in the eastern sky that signaled his birth. We're on pilgrimage to worship him." Matthew 2:1-2 The Message
A band of scholars, traveling across land and sea – following a star in the eastern sky. Their destination was set – they were determined to worship the newborn King of the Jews. Their mission was set before them – all they had to do was follow.
How about you? Do you ever wish your life’s purpose was so clearly defined? Have you ever longed for a sign that made everything oh-so-clear? A star, email, fax, or phone call – informing you of your mission and directing your path? How cool!
Living the satisfactory life requires us to keep our eyes on our own “Guiding Star” - and a willingness to travel over land and sea in pursuit of our own God-bestowed grand epic adventure. This month we’re going to offer a few suggestions about how one can grab a decent pair of God-vision goggles, identify the goal, and travel the journey. May your own journey be sweet!
