Yesterday in worship we celebrated Epiphany. We heard the story of the Magi and were invited us to consider the stars that show up in our lives.

How do we know they are God drawing near or a distraction away from God? Epiphany means revelation, the moment when something hidden becomes visible.

When God is not just believed in, but recognized. The Magi notice that something in the sky has shifted and instead of dismissing it, they pay attention. They stop. They follow.

Epiphany is not just about a star long ago. It’s about learning how to recognize God’s nearness now especially in a world crowded with flashing lights, loud voices, and urgent demands for our attention.
