Be A Gift to the Baby Jesus!

The Magi Brought Gifts and Received the Greatest Gift!

Gifts are important items during Christmastide, but the gift that we receive needs to last us for the rest of our lives, Jesus! The Spirit of Christmas can be life changing if we allow the Meaning of Christmas to take us over.

The Magi travelled to find the source of light and was transformed by it. We read in St. Matthew’s Gospel:

When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy; and going into the house they saw the Child with Mary His Mother, and they fell down and worshiped Him. Then, opening their treasures, they offered Him gifts, gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.

Matthew 2:10-11

We join these Magi every day of our lives. May we bring whatever gift we have today to the Lord! May we be open to receive the gift that only this encounter can bring, the light of Christ!

May we carry Christmas with us all of our days!

Epiphany Blessings!

Keep Moving Toward The Light!

The Star is There, Trust!

When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy…
Matthew 3: 10

Happy Epiphany Sunday!

The above selection from the Gospel of St. Matthew points out the feelings of the Magi who had come to follow the Star. This light was a message for them of something great happening in the world. But then the Star disappeared!

The Star remained, but they could not see it!

They walked into a place of great darkness that covered their vision of the light of the Star!

The Wise Ones passed through the darkness in Trust!

Experience the joy they had felt! Their perseverance was rewarded, they met and adored the “Source of the Light “, Jesus!

May we follow the example of the Magi, when darkness comes our way, remember the Star is still there!

Move forward in Total Trust!

Pax.
