                                   THE EPIPHANY OF THE LORD
                                           If Jesus truly is who he claims to be, the eternal Son of God and Savior
                                   of the world, then why is he not recognized by everyone who hears his word
                                   and sees his works? John the Evangelist states that when Jesus came into the
                                   world the world knew him not and his own people received him not (John
                                   1:10-11). Jesus was born in obscurity. Only the lowly shepherds recognized
                                   him at his birth. Some wise men also found their way to Bethlehem to pay
                                   homage to the newborn King of Israel. These men were not Israelites, but
                                   foreigners.
                                           The Lord of the universe who revealed the star of Bethlehem to the
                                   Gentiles of the East so they could come and worship Jesus, the Prince of
                                   Peace (Isaiah 9:6) and King of Kings (Revelations 19:16), gives each one of
                                   us the same light of revelation to recognize and accept Jesus as our Lord and
Savior. Faith is an entirely free gift that God makes to us. It is through the help of the Holy Spirit, who moves
the heart and opens the eyes of the mind, that we are able to understand, accept, and believe the truth which
God has revealed to us through his Son, Jesus Christ. In faith, the human will and intellect cooperate with
grace. "Believing is an act of the intellect assenting to the divine truth by command of the will moved by God
through grace"(Thomas Aquinas). To know and to encounter Jesus Christ is to know God personally. In the
encounter of the wise men with Jesus we see the plan of God to give his only Son as King and Savior, not just
for the Jewish people but for all the nations as well.

                                                                 WORD OF WISDOM
