Epiphany
Where is the child who has been born a king?
—Matthew 2.2
Of course they didn't find him in the usual places,
in the splendid, among the powerful, the successful.
Imagine the wonders they had to ignore
to finally find the wonder they had overlooked.
The holy one is among the unexpected—
I mean the unworthy, the undeserving.
Perhaps in their own tenacity the Magi found him;
perhaps in their defiance of Herod.
For those who are seeking the holy
the light of divine love shines in each of us.
Who knows by what act of your love
someone may set their compass?
We offer our gifts, we defy oppression,
and so lead the world to a revealing,
each of us, if we choose,
a star luminous with love
-Pastor Steve Garnaas Holmes
