“Shepherds and Kings
Following Hopes and Stars
That take them deep into the night.
How far have they come?
We should really know for certainly
Everyone is a Shepherd and King”.
How far have they come?
We should really know for certainly
Everyone is a Shepherd and King”.
The Sundays of Epiphany are full of wonder and light! Epiphany is the revealing of the light – Jesus Christ to the world.
The journey of the shepherds and kings is truly our journey. Like those so long ago, we are
searching for Jesus and for the way of our very own lives. Who is Jesus to me? What does Jesus ask of me? How shall I go forward? Who shall I trust? Who shall I rely upon? How will I shine?
In our baptismal service we repeat the phrase, “Let your light so shine before others that they see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” How shall we shine? One candle can pierce the darkness, yes, however if there are many lights, well then we light the sky. You can shine alone, but joining your light with those of your family, community and church is an even greater illumination.
Don’t let the cold and dreariness of January keep you away from gathering with us in worship, study and fellowship. Be here. Let your light shine brightly!
