Epiphany. Wise Men. The star. Gold, frankincense, and myrrh. You know the story. It's part of the Christmas story we all know so well. Doting shepherds and wealthy wise men gazing at the child. The thing about Epiphany, though, is that baby the shepherds and wise men are looking at -- that's God! God in the flesh. Hod here in the world. And for us today, it's not in seeing the pint-sized Jesus in the manger, but in seeing the omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent God on the cross and in the grave. That you be wise men, wise women, and wise children. By His Word.
