Great To Have A Guide

When they heard the king, they departed; and behold, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.  Matthew 2:9-10

You are almost to a place, but in an unfamiliar land; GPS doesn't exist yet and maps will come in a few years or so. Someone has kindly pointed out the road to Bethlehem, but that is all you have to go on to find one child who was born sometime in the past couple of years. (Give us a break, it took the party that long to arrive after seeing the sign watched for over centuries.) Well imagine your relief and joy to have that sign you saw back home turn out to be more than you thought it was and you now have a sure guide pointing to the house you want to find! Well, one of these days we all want to find a place called Heaven, and maps or GPS will not help us. But what we saw in Christ when we believed will turn out to be that sure Guide who will return to lead us home, His home and ours. 

Praise God for His Son!
