How to Be a Star

Do all things without grumbling or disputing, that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world.

-Phil 2:14–15

Our brilliance in this dim world is found in our submission to God’s providence. Just as the stars follow their ordered march through space and time, so too the Christian shines brightest when marching in joyful submission to God’s revealed will, and when resigning to whatever his secret will sends our way. Then our lives shall pulse in step with the Great Dance of God’s wondrous decree.
