In a quiet corner of the universe, there was a tiny star named Little Star. Little Star loved to twinkle and shimmer, lighting up the night sky. But there was something that Little Star did not know how to do.

Every night, Little Star would watch as the children on Earth said their prayers before going to bed. They would close their eyes, fold their hands, and speak softly. Little Star wished he could pray too.

"Why do they pray, and how can I learn?" Little Star wondered. So, he decided to journey across the universe in search of someone who could teach him.

Little Star first visited Moon, his shiny friend in the sky. "Moon, can you teach me to pray?" he asked. But Moon could only glow softly, saying nothing.

Disappointed, Little Star journeyed on, visiting Planet and Comet. But none of them could teach him to pray. Feeling sad, Little Star returned to his corner of the sky.

One night, while twinkling sadly, Little Star noticed a new star shining brightly in the sky. It was the Star of Bethlehem, the star that guided the Wise Men to Jesus.

The Star of Bethlehem radiated warmth and kindness. Little Star felt a sense of peace, and he knew that this star could help him. So, he asked, "Can you teach me to pray?"

The Star of Bethlehem smiled and said, "Little Star, to pray is to talk to Jesus. It's about expressing your thoughts, your wishes, and your gratitude. It's as easy as shining in the sky."

Little Star was surprised. "That sounds easy! But what should I say?" he asked. The Star of Bethlehem replied, "Speak from your heart, Little Star. Jesus loves all of his creations."

That night, Little Star closed his eyes and began to pray. He thanked Jesus for his light, for the children on Earth, and for his new friend, the Star of Bethlehem.

As Little Star prayed, he felt a warmth in his heart. It was as if his light was shining brighter than ever before. He knew then that Jesus had heard his prayer.

From that night on, Little Star prayed every night before he began to twinkle. He prayed for the children, for his friends in the sky, and for all of God's creations.

The children on Earth noticed Little Star's light shining brighter. They loved his light, and it reminded them to say their prayers too, thanking Jesus for another day.

Little Star was happy. He had learned to pray, and he realized that prayer was not just for the children on Earth but for everyone, even for a tiny star like him.

The universe seemed even more beautiful to Little Star. He knew that prayer was a way to connect with Jesus, to share his thoughts, his wishes, and his gratitude.

Every night, as Little Star twinkled in the sky, his light served as a reminder for all to say their prayers. His journey had taught him the importance of prayer, and he was eager to share it.

And so, Little Star continued to light up the night sky, praying and twinkling. He knew that every prayer made his light shine brighter, and he was proud to be a part of God's beautiful universe.

Whenever you look up at the sky at night and see Little Star twinkling brightly, remember to say a prayer. For prayer, like Little Star's light, brings comfort, peace, and a connection to Jesus.

Little Star's story is a reminder for everyone, young and old, to take a moment each night to say a prayer. It shows us the power of prayer and how it can fill our hearts with warmth and love.

So tonight, before you go to bed, remember to say your prayers. And as you close your eyes and whisper your thoughts to Jesus, think of Little Star, twinkling and praying in the sky above.
