Following Jesus to Bethlehem


More Advent wonder and Christmas joy 
If 3 wise men were helped by a star...
Wise Men on a Mission

Was it easy for the wise men?
What did they have to leave behind to follow the star?
What expectations did they have to let go of
when they finally reached the manger?

 

Day  25:

Ever heard or read of someone who died and was brought back to life?
One such person said he saw Jesus, who told him he had to go back because he had a mission.
When the man asked, “What is my mission?” Jesus answered, “I’m not going to tell you,
but you will discover it in relationship to the people in your life.”

Few have ever had a star to follow, but all of us have people in our lives who challenge or 
encourage us. Jesus is still hidden from view as Mary and Joseph set out for Bethlehem.
Many of us ask God, “What do you want me to do?” Maybe the answer will be hidden from view
for a little while longer in one or more of the people around you. 

Jesus, help me discover or re-discover your plan for my life.
