Epiphany of the Lord

Isaiah 60:1-6, Ps.72, Ephesians 3:2-3, 5-6, Matthew 2:1-12

Shine the Light

Jesus was the “light” about which Isaiah prophesised “… all would come from far away”. That light was not extinguished with his death but was passed on to you and to me, his Church, his living Body on Earth. It is over the Church that “… his glory (will) be seen. The nations will come to your light and kings to your dawning brightness”. Let each of us strive to be the light of Christ to our world.
