The Epiphany of the Lord

Rise up in splendor, Jerusalem! Your light has come, the glory of the Lord shines upon you … Then you shall be radiant at what you see, your heart shall throb and overflow … Is 60:1,4a

During these days of Celebrating Christmas, we hear of many who encounter or discover our newborn King: shepherds, animals in the stable, and King Herod. Today, the we hear of the Magi. All of these are outsiders. Some are poor; some are foreigners; there are animals, and a fearful king. They all know that something amazing is happening. Most seek to come close to Jesus. The King, in fear, wished to destroy the newborn king.

We too are outsiders - we took time and made effort to come close to Jesus this season. Today, like the Magi, we are asked to lay our treasures and riches before him.

What are those gifts and treasures that you offer to Jesus today?

Gracious and Glorious Lord,

Help me this day to radiate your light, your love, your splendor, in every word, every thought, every action.

Like the Star the guided the Magi, may my attachment to you draw others to your infinite and unconditional loving mercy. 

Amen.
