Dear Reader:
Can you believe it? We got here all intact…Christmas Eve!
This year… instead of just giving a gift or present… why not be one? How? Be the very best you with the brightest smile shining as brightly as the Christmas Star…. light up the room!
Hint: What is a fun, free gift for everyone… REALLY bundle up at your family or friend’s gathering and go look for the Christmas Star. ( Check out Santa’s sleigh along the way!)
Ask everyone, including the children , which star they think is the brightest…like the Christmas Star was for the Three Wise Men… and astrologers.
Speaking of…. since the Gospel of Matthew was written in 80 AD ( 80 years after the fact) there are many modern astrological theories today of what might have been the Christmas Star” leading the Wise Men to the birthplace of Jesus Christ.
Some popular theories are the star was the planet Venus, a comet, the Dog constellation ( Sirius) , a supernova ( exploding star) conjunction of two planets ( Saturn and Jupiter)
So until tomorrow… Tell the children if you truly want to see a miracle… just go outside and look up into the night sky… it is full of miracles… including us!
Today is my favorite day-Winnie the Pooh
Wishing you clear skies and wide eyes this Christmas Eve!
