The Epiphany of the Lord When I tell a story, I have a friend who prefers the “nutshell version” first. After that she’ll listen to me ramble, but she wants to know the main point right off the bat. When reading and hearing Sunday scriptures one may often find the nutshell by looking at the responsorial psalm or the Gospel acclamation. From Psalm 72 we hear “Lord, every nation on earth will adore you.” The verse for the Gospel acclamation is Matthew 2:2 “We saw his star at its rising and have come to do him homage.” As a weary world, we need to see the light, to follow with our actions and our words. This is the same hope that is echoed in Isaiah 60:2 “See, darkness covers the earth, / and thick clouds cover the peoples; / but upon you the L shines, / and over you appears his glory.” Don’t give up, friends. You must shine! SEARCHING In Matthew’s Gospel today we see two extremely different perspectives, two different reasons for searching for Jesus. In some ways, this resembles the polarization of our nation in today’s time. What one group sees as good for the nation, those with opposing views think will wreck the country. The Magi were astrologers who saw a vision in the sky and were trying to find a way to follow it and discover the new king of the Jews. Herod heard about this king, and his reaction was dark and negative. He saw the birth of such a king as a threat to his power as the Roman leader of the country and wanted the Magi to pass on to him what they knew about this Christ child. Similarly, on a more personal level, we can either feel threatened or excited by changes that may come, depending on our perspective. GIVING HOMAGE In our minds, it is easy to mix up bits and pieces from Luke’s account of the shepherds coming to see Jesus in the stable and the story of the magi. Clearly, it has taken the magi time to get here, and the reading speaks of them coming to the house where the star led them. Nevertheless, they “prostrated themselves and did him homage. Then they opened their treasures . . .” How do we do this? Do we continue looking for Jesus, even if takes a while and he is not where we expect to see him? Are we paying attention to the signs showing us the way? What gifts do we have with which to pay him homage? Af-ter seeing him, the Magi were warned in a dream not to go back the way they came. But if we have seen the Christ child, how can we go back to where we were? We must continue to respond to God’s call to move forward and grow in our lives. We must seek the right and just path and turn away from the “Herods” and inherent evils in our life. Nutshell: Seek God. Pay homage. Amen. Today’s Readings: Is 60:1–6; Ps 72:1–2, 7–8, 10–11, 12–13; Eph 3:2–3a, 5–6; Mt 2:1–12

La Epifanía del Señor BUSCANDO En el Evangelio de hoy de Mateo vemos dos perspectivas extremadamente diferentes, dos razones diferentes para buscar a Jesús. En cierto modo, esto se parece a la polarización de nuestra nación en el tiempo actual. Lo que un grupo ve como bueno para la nación, quienes tienen puntos de vista opuesto piensan que eso arruinará el país. Los Reyes Magos eran astrólogos que vieron una visión en el cielo y trataban de encontrar una forma de seguirla y descubrir al nuevo rey de los judíos. Herodes escuchó acerca de este rey y su reacción fue oscura y negativa. Él vio el nacimiento de tal rey como una amenaza a su poder como líder romano del país y pidió a los Reyes Mayos le dijeran lo que sabían sobre ese niño mesías. De igual manera, en un nivel más personal, ya sea que nos podamos sentir amenazados o emocionados por los cambios que puedan venir, dependiendo de nuestra perspectiva. DANDO HOMENAJE En nuestras mentes, es fácil mezclar pedazos y piezas del relato de Lucas que cuenta acerca de los astores que vinieron a ver a Jesús en el establo y la historia de los magos. Claramente, a los magos les tomó tiempo llegar hasta ahí y la lectura habla de ellos yendo a la casa donde la estrella los guiaba. Sin embargo, “se postraron y le rindieron homenaje. Luego abrieron sus tesoros . . . “ ¿Cómo lo hacemos? ¿Seguimos buscando a Jesús, aunque tarde un poco y no esté donde esperamos verlo? ¿Estamos atentos a las señales que nos indican el camino? ¿Qué regalos tenemos para rendirle homenaje? Después de verlo, en un sueño los magos fueron advertidos de no regresar por donde habían ido. Pero si ya vimos al niño Jesús, ¿cómo podemos regresar por donde estábamos? Debemos seguir respondiendo al llamado de Dios para avanzar y crecer en nuestras vidas. Debemos buscar el camino justo y correcto y alejarnos de “Herodes” y de los males propios de nuestra vida. En pocas palabras: Busca a Dios. Rinde homenaje. Amén. Las lecturas de hoy: Is 60:1–6; Sal 72 (71):1–2, 7–8, 10–11, 12–13; Efe 3:2–3a, 5–6; Mt 2:1–12
