Following the Star

December 24, 2014

I was downtown Salt Lake on Tuesday when I decided to stop by Temple Square. I wanted to see if I could get a picture of the Wise Men who were part of a display outside the North Visitors Center and the Christus who is inside the North Visitors Center. At night, this is possible,but during the day, the buildings on South Temple reflect on the windows where one can see the Christus from the outside. So I decided instead to take a few pictures of the Nativity display which the Wise Men were included.

I saw the stable where Mary, Joseph and Jesus were and a few animals. And I saw the Shepherds with their sheep coming to the stable. On the east side of the display, ahead of the Wise Men were a women and young girl.They were not apart of the Wise Men or the Shepherds, but coming on their own to see Jesus. And it made me think. There were others who came to visit to Jesus. It made sense. Every one saw the unusual star that showed in the sky that night. The Star guided those who were seeking the Christ child.
