Short Reflection
for the Feast of the Epiphany of the Lord
Readings:
Isaiah 60: 1-6; Ephesians 3: 2-3a. 5-6; Matthew 2: 1-12
Selected
Passage: “They were overjoyed at seeing the star, and on entering the house
they saw the child with Mary his mother. They prostrated themselves and did him
homage. Then they opened their treasures
and offered him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.” (Matthew 2: 10-11)
Meditation: This feast celebrates the manifestation
of the Lord to the Magi. They saw his star and followed it until they saw the
child, the Savior. We need to see, too,
his star, today, and follow it in our daily journey through life. Yes, his star
continues to shine, but we need discerning eyes and a heart attune to God so
that we, too, one day, find him and pay him homage. www.badaliyya.blogspot.com
