The Epiphany of the Lord
Is 60:1-6; Eph 3:2-3 & 5-6; Mt 2:1-12 (Year A)
"Where is the infant King of the Jews? We saw his star as it rose and have come to do him homage.”
Matthew’s infancy narrative gives us the familiar story of the Wise Men who had travelled from the east in search of the infant king. Their search mirrored the unresolved longing of sinful humanity.
Our hearts are restless until they rest in God. For us, as for the Wise Men, that search finds its ultimate rest in the incarnate Son of God.
