Starflower Blossoms and Leaves In the time of King Herod, after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, asking, Where is the child who has been born king of the Jews? For we observed his star at its rising, and have come to pay him homage.” Matthew 2:1-2 “It is I, Jesus, who sent my angel to you with this testimony for the churches. I am the root and descendant of David, the bright morning star.” Revelation 22:16 (NRSV) Promises Fulfilled Stars remind us of promises made and promises fulfilled. Long ago people waited for the prophesy of the Messiah to be fulfilled. The wise men from the East studied the stars and followed the star that was a sign that the king of the Jews had been born. They came to worship Jesus. In the book of Revelation Jesus speaks and says he has fulfilled the hopes and dreams of prophets through the ages. He is the “bright morning star” or the Messiah for whom people have waited. Dear Heavenly Father, Things to Think About and Do
