During the Feast of Epiphany, we celebrate Jesus appearing to the gentiles.

God created this space so we all could participate in the mystery of Jesus. The wisemen came from different nations and cultures. Despite their differences, they were invited to accept he mystery of Christ. They were not fascinated or mesmerized by power. They were transformed by the love Jesus emanated.

The Gift of Jesus shows how God’s love is transnational. It does not discriminate. God defends the needy, delivers the poor and pities the lowly.

So how can we today be faithful when times feel dark and heavy?

Look up, find a star and remember God has the whole world in his hands.
