VOCATION IS A CALL BY NAME: CATHOLIC SUNDAY SCRIPTURE REFLECTIONS: 2ND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME, CYCLE B, 2024

ByOnuh

Life is a vocation and it is one which God calls us by name! Our vocation is to know God, love Him, and serve Him in our fellow brothers and sisters. Every state of our life is a calling from God. We are called to life when we were born. We do not exist by accident. We were also called to the Christian life in Christ Jesus when we were baptized. We have specific vocations to marital life, consecrated life, or to live life in singlehood. Whatever our state or calling, living fully within God´s plan for us is a vocation. A life, God intended for us to know, to love, and to serve Him in others.

God for all, christ, God

IN CHRIST: GOD IS FOR ALL! CATHOLIC SUNDAY SCRIPTURE REFLECTION: EPIPHANY OF THE LORD, CYCLE B, 2024

ByOnuh

The Feast of Epiphany means that in Christ Jesus, God is for all people and nations without exclusion. The Greek word Epiphany (επιφάνεια), means appearance or manifestation. In theological terms, Epiphany means the appearance or manifestation of Christ to the world after his birth.

Indeed, God is not just manifested to a small group of people called Israel. With the visit of the Magi, he is being revealed to all the people of earth and nations. This manifestation of God, Himself to us in so many ways. It is called a theophany. At the fullness of time, the revelation of his only Begotten Son: Jesus Christ was its climax.
