I followed the star right to Mass this morning 🙂
It wasn’t a long trek for me — literally just out my front door and across the street, but metaphorically, for all of us, it’s a short journey. Jesus is waiting for us, and he’ll more than meet us halfway if we take those first steps out the door. I know this now, but I didn’t always believe it was so.
Like the Magi, I’ve been on a long long journey, and like the historical Magi, they probably didn’t just show up a couple of weeks later, but rather, probably traveled for years. Yet, here we are today.
On this celebration of Epiphany, seek out the star, Jesus. Embark on the journey. You don’t need to take frankincense or myrrh. Instead, give yourself to him.
