Today marks the last day of Christmastide. Tomorrow is Epiphany. I love it that no commercial entity has advertised a single sale in honor of the illumination - that I know of. This holiday belongs to those of us who see the Christ child for who he is.
I'm aware I'm exclusivist. That's fine by me because Epiphany is nearly the only holy thing left about Christmas in today's American culture.
Tomorrow the magi will be placed in the creche at Willow Meadows Baptist Church. As I pray and prepare for tomorrow's worship gatherings I have a single song line stuck in my head:
Arise, your light has come.
May I seek as the magi sought.
