Epiphany

Jokes about Wee Three Kings, or "tried to smoke a rubber cigar..." aside, it is not yet Epiphany- the day the church remembers and clebrates the 3 Wise people. We are pretty much all back at our usual lives, and for many of us, teh tree is down, the leftovers are gone, the New Year's resolutions have started. But the Wise Men (and women) are stilll searching for Jesus. Estimates say they traveled at least 2 years, following the star, before they got to see tha baby Jesus. (who was a toddler by then, apparently). What do you search for in your life? What have you been following for years? It is something that gives light and life, soemthing taht will lead to Jesus? Or have you (and I include myself in this) been following something,been paying attention to something, for years, that will not lead you to the Prince of Peace? Spend some time is silence and prayer, asking yourself: What am I searching for? What can I let go of searching for?
Blessings in this Epiphany time- Pastor Nancy
