The Epiphany of the Lord
Today we celebrate the Epiphany of the Lord, the
awaking to the light of the world, the Son of God, our newborn king and
Savior. The Light which has come into
the world is not the star that the magi from the east followed. The Light is Jesus himself. It is He who shines on all people. We ask ourselves, what does this great Light
reveal to us? Does our heart “throb and
overflow” at the Light that leads us? As
we reflect on this wonderful day in our church calendar and liturgy, let’s all
take time to thank God for the blessing of the Light of Christ in our lives, this light that is, “the
glory of the Lord” shining upon us.
