Christmas: A Story of God's Guiding Light - A Nighttime Prayer

After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.”

– Matthew 2:1-2 (NIV)

Please Pray:

Father in Heaven, you are majestic and worthy of my praise. Thank you for guiding me in many different ways. Help me recognize your star of guidance in my life and give me the courage to follow. I trust you, Lord. Help me to rely and depend on you always, not just when I am desperate for an answer. You are truly my North Star. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
