A Spanish evangelist was holding meetings in Venezuela. In a restaurant an hour before the evening meeting a waiter spilled a bowl of hot soup on his beautiful dress. His suit was stained and he was slightly burned. But he was not angry. 

The waiter apologised, offered him to buy a new suit. But the evangelist said" You work hard carrying trays all day long. You are tired by now. Just forget It".

Next day when the evangelist entered the restaurant the waiter asked him to come to his room. There the waiter said" I have waited on many people during my life, but whenever I wait on you i realize some thing unusual. When I spilled the soup you are not angry , and I want to know what makes you different. 

Before the conversation ended the, waiter found Christ through the unusual shining of one of God's stars. 

* Many people are ready to put star in front of their houses these days. Yes, there is a message of Christmas. 

But if Christ the Bright and Morning star shines in our heart. We becomes an unusual star shining in this dark world for His glory... 


, “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.”Mathew 2:2


 so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky 

Philippians 2:15 


Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever. Daniel 12:3

  1. 1 Peter 2:9-10 TPT
    But you are God’s chosen treasure—priests who are kings, a spiritual “nation” set apart as God’s devoted ones. He called you out of darkness to experience his marvelous light, and now he claims you as his very own. He did this so that you would broadcast his glorious wonders throughout the world. [10] For at one time you were not God’s people, but now you are. At one time you knew nothing of God’s mercy, because you hadn’t received it yet, but now you are drenched with it!
