As we celebrate the birth of Jesus at Christmas, we explore the journey of the Holy Family and the first visitors of Christ, the shepherds, and the wise men. The wise men, guided by a star, represent the pursuit of knowledge and the recognition of Jesus as the Lord.
In today’s society, as modern wise individuals, we often overlook attributing our discoveries to God. The episode draws parallels between the journey of the wise men and the spiritual journey of contemporary Christians. It emphasizes the significance of the Eucharist as our guiding light, akin to the star that led the wise men to Jesus.
Listeners are encouraged to bring their own gifts, just as the wise men did, by participating in the Mass with personal offerings and intentions. The homily calls for a reflection on what we have to offer and how we can let the Eucharist guide us in our daily lives, ensuring that the encounter with Jesus leaves a lasting impact, much like the wise men experienced.
