The Epiphany of The Lord
January 3, 2016
Jubilee
Year of Mercy
In this Jubilee Year of
Mercy, Epiphany
celebrates God’s mercy
shining on the magi from a
guiding star. Their
kingdoms were far from
Jerusalem, their religions
far from God’s covenant
with Israel. At first the star
led the magi to Jerusalem,
where they could “recalculate” their quest with the
help of God’s own “GPS,” the Jewish scriptures.
How challenging and humbling for the magi to
discover that they would find the world’s Messiah not
in a palace but with a poor couple in an insignificant
village. That’s where God’s mercy, shining in the
star, led the magi to worship Jesus, the Prince of
Peace. Today the magi invite us to “recalculate” our
life’s journey during this Jubilee Year—to follow the
star of God’s mercy along the way of humble love, to
discover a renewed personal relationship with Jesus
ourselves and so become “guiding stars” leading
other seekers to find Jesus, too.
