God’s plan leaves no one out

Three young people from Korschenbroich, Germany, dressed as the Magi, carry the offertory gifts during Mass on the feast of Mary Mother of God in St. Peter's Basilica at the Vatican Jan. 1.

Epiphany of the Lord (Year B) Jan. 4 (Isaiah 60:1-6; Psalm 72; Ephesians 3:2-3a, 5-6; Matthew 2:1-12)

Isaiah painted an inspiring and hope-filled picture of Israel’s future. His words must have been a welcome balm for a dispirited and discouraged people. The day would come when the radiance of God’s light and glory would be so overwhelming that it would stand as a beacon for the whole world. They were to ignore the seeming darkness around them and look to God’s glorious future.
