Following the Star
September 18, 2010
Do you see it?
There!
Right there!
High in the sky…
there it is!
the Star!
My –
I’ve never seen anything quite like it.
It’s so bright,
so beautiful,
so compelling…
I find myself filled with longing to follow that Star?
What? You say I’m crazy?
May be…maybe –
But,
But what if,
But what if following that Star just might lead me home?
What if following that star just might lead me
to the place of peace I so long for?
My heart, and my mind, are filled with the desperate “what ifs” that make staying here,
In this place,
Next to impossible.
So, here I am,
Like a crazy fool,
Packing my bags
And loading this camel
And heading out, over this desert,
Into this broad expanse of wasteland –
I have to go
I’m compelled to follow
The Star is calling me home.
(TAEHS, Matthew 2.1-12)
