GETTING READY FOR SUNDAY: PREVIEW OF THE READINGS
The season of Epiphany celebrates the shining or showing forth of God, in the person of His Son, Jesus Christ. The Gospel lessons in the season of Epiphany serve to highlight some aspect of God’s Divine Life, Wisdom, Love, and Power which Christ manifested. Our Gospel lesson tells the story of the miraculous turning of water into wine at the wedding of Cana. But the Divine Life which Christ manifests is something given to us to partake and participate in, so that we in turn are transformed and become an epiphany. How this is so is described for us in today’s Epistle lesson, where St. Paul describes the spiritual gifts which God pours out upon the Church, and the character of our Christian lives.
