Epiphany

Today is the day of Epiphany. One of the things I love the most about this day is the clear play on words from the title of the day. It is the day God's Church remembers the coming of the Magi to visit the Christ Child. They had an epiphany in their own lives when they followed that star and brought their gifts humbly to their King.

I just finished reading another blog (http://www.transformingcenter.org/2012/01/seeing-stars-the-epiphany-of-our-lord/) by Ruth Haley Barton, about choosing to follow God's star in our own lives and coming to our own sense and place of epiphany.

This is a day when we recognize that we can look for God in the most unusual of places and circumstances, and discover Him in ways we did not expect. It's a day that reminds us that God is still mysterious and will reveal Himself to us in the most unlikely and unique moments of life. It's a reminder that He is still invested in creating ongoing epiphanies in our lives. We just have to keep following His light

Happy Epiphany!
