Epiphany

Today during Mass we celebrated the Feast of the Epiphany - when God revealed Christ to the three Magi.  The importance of this celebration is that Jesus was first revealed to the Jewish people and then to the gentiles whom the Magi represent.  In this all people have experienced the Divine revelation of the promised Messiah - Jesus.  


As we remember this event we need to ask ourselves how have we responded to God's revelation of Jesus to us?  Are we the same - no one can remain the same once they come face to face with Jesus - or have we closed our eyes and denied that God Almighty has revealed Himself to us?


Good point to ponder today.
