Boldly Living out our Lives in the Light of Faith
Epiphany is the season of light and brightness. The Christ
child has come into the world in radiant beauty and joy. This is the season of
hope and self-giving. Just as the three kings traveled so far in order to honor
the newborn Christ, so too are we called to go to whatever length required of
us to proclaim Jesus as our Lord and King.
What length are we willing to go demonstrate the light of Christ’s
hope to the world? How far are we willing to spiritually travel to proclaim him
Lord and King of all creation? Like the three kings, are we willing to take the
journey’s risk? Are we willing to face the terrible Herod’s of this world by
standing up to global and local atrocities?
Epiphany is the season in which we are bathed in the
radiance of Christ. It is the season that calls us to enlighten all nations and
peoples regarding the Good News of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Epiphany
leaves those who proclaim Christ as the Incarnate Word made Flesh no dark
shadows to hide. It is the season in which we are called out to boldly live out
our faith amidst the darkness of the world.
