January 6

We all have had the experience of walking into a dark room
and searching for the light switch. If we are really unfamiliar
with the space, anxiety, uncertainty, disorientation, and even
fear can easily arise. Once we find the light, all is illuminated
and we are at peace. Our light has come into the world! The
glory of God has been revealed!
Today's feast of the Epiphany teaches us to look to our Savior,
Jesus Christ, for the way to truly be the human beings we were
created to be. He shows us how to prioritize our lives, order
our relationships, care for creation, and live as daughters and
sons of God. God's love and creative power is universal, transcending
all races and nations. Jesus brings the light of peace to
a broken world that still struggles to understand itself and to
you and I who also struggle to understand who we are. May
we find ourselves overjoyed that we have found our truth and
allow Jesus to bring light to the darkness of our lives!
