The Epiphany of the Lord We know this story so well it is a good example of perseverance. The Magi were determined to follow the star - “overjoyed at seeing the star. . . and on entering the house they saw the child with Mary his mother... and did him homage.” Our culture urges us to follow a lot of “stars” these days: sports stars, rock stars, movie stars, stars famous for any number of reasons. But the question is, do they lead us to Christ? Maybe it’s time to take a lesson from the Magi and look for Christ. These other “stars” will come and go but Jesus Christ will never leave us!

La Epifanía de Nuestro Señor

Sabemos muy bien que esta historia es un ejemplo de perseverancia. Los magos estaban determina-dos a seguir la estrella- “ y al verla, se llenaron de inmensa alegría… y al entrar vieron al niño con María su madre… y cayendo de rodillas lo adora-ron” Nuestra cultura nos anima así a seguir a mu-chas “estrellas”: estrellas del deporte, estrellas de rock, estrellas de películas, estrellas famosas por cualquier razón. Pero la pregunta es, ¿esas estrellas nos están llevando a Cristo? Tal vez es tiempo de aprender la lección de los magos e ir a buscar a Cristo. Estas otras “estrellas” ¡van y vienen, pero Je-sús nunca nos abandona.
