Vision
Jan 20, 2025
A week ago was Epiphany Sunday. As guests at a local church, we experienced a new tradition.
The ushers stepped forward in what we expected to be the passing of plates, the usual request for offerings.
Instead, the officiant entreated the congregants to take a simple gift from the brass coffers.
We were instructed to reach in without looking and select a wooden star. Each star had a single word inscribed.
The pastor asked us to place the star at a location in our home where we could see it each day and meditate on its meaning in our lives.
Just as the Star from the East, led the Wise Men towards Bethlehem, this token is to become a guide star in our future days.
