Epiphany [to have been preached on Sunday, January 3, 2010]
"Arise, shine; for your light has come."
I really like that idea -- that we are called to shine because our light has come.
Christ has come to transform our lives -- to lift us out of the darkness and into the light.
And we are called to then reflect that light into the world -- to be filled with divine light and carry it with us through the world, illuminating the darkness through which we travel.
