When they saw the star, they rejoiced with great joy

When I was in kindergarten, I made a star ornament out of a sweet gum ball. So, with the help of Uncle Daniel, we collected some sweet gum balls...




and began inserting toothpicks into them...



to make beautiful stars! This has been a great reminder of one of our family's favorite verses.

"Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like STARS in the universe as you hold out the word of life..." Philippians 2:14-16a
