TODAY’S WORD…

.

“We saw His star when it rose and have come to worship Him.”

.

– Matthew 2:2 (NIV)

.

.

.

REFLECTION…

.

The wise men had travelled a long way from their homes in the East to Jerusalem

so as to pay homage to the child Jesus; to worship Him.

.

Am I prepared to leave my comfort zone

and go humbly before Jesus

to acknowledge Him as my King and Saviour,

and to pay due homage to Him?

.

If I truly believe that He is God,

I should then make it a point of doing so every day of my life,

shutting myself off for a few minutes from all else that takes up my day,

and simply focusing on the One without whom I am lost.

.

Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life

– let us never stop worshipping Him.

.

QUOTE…

.

"Like the Magi we have discovered a star – a light and a guide in the sky of our soul.

‘We saw His star when it rose and have come to worship Him.’

We have had the same experience.

We too noticed a new light shining in our soul and growing increasingly brighter.

It was a desire to live a fully Christian life,

a keenness to take God seriously."

.

– St. Josemaria Escriva

PRAYER…

.

Jesus, You are my Light.

You are my Way, my Truth and my Life…and I worship You.
