It occurred to me that Herod was under the same star that led the three
wise men to Bethlehem, but His attention was elsewhere. In this world
that coaxes and teases our attention away from Him, we can miss the Son.
J.O.B. is a journey, a Journey of Blessings....documenting those places
that the Lord shows up and amazes. Those places, unless intentionally
focused on, can be missed as easily as the Star of Bethlehem was missed
by a worldly king. When we shift our focus and we watch
and wait- as the wise men did- our perspective shifts....we learn of
the character and nature of God...we know that He is personal and
intimate...we see Him in the raindrops, in the skies and in the kisses
He delivers throughout the day, Entering His courts with Thanksgiving,
we find Him- in the ordinary, in the everyday...not in the everyday of a
manger- but in the everyday of our lives. When trouble hits- we know
the character and the nature of our God - we KNOW who He is and how
faithful He is. We know Him, so we rest in Him- and He protects us
under His mighty wing. Want to stat a journey- a Journey of Blessings?
