COMMENTARY: St. Augustine’s rejection of astrology reveals why the light we seek is not found in the heavens, but in the humility of the Incarnation celebrated at Christmas and Epiphany.
That first Christmas was difficult, requiring the heroic virtue of Mary and Joseph.
Miracles can happen in our own time, too, if we keep Christ at the center.
In God’s providence, the Gospels complement each other and have different emphases — but not everyone seems to realize that
‘Let us look at the crib: that awe before the crib. Sometimes there is no inner space for astonishment, but only to organize the parties, to have the parties.’
User’s Guide to the Nativity of the Lord
“‘Arise, shine; for your light has come.’ Today, the Solemnity of Epiphany … in pointing to the light the prophet is pointing to Christ. As it shone for the shepherds seeking the newborn Messiah, so this light shines today on the path of the Magi.’ —Pope Benedict XVI
