Pope Francis said today (January 6, 2020), the Epiphany of the Lord, that worship of Christ reveals the true meaning of our journey of life, as it did for the magi in the Gospel, according to the National Catholic Register website.
"When we do not worship God, we end up worshiping ourselves," Francis said in St. Peter's Basilica.
He added, "In worship, we learn to reject what should not be worshiped: the god of money, the god of consumerism, the god of pleasure, the god of success, the god of self. Worship means bending low before the Most High and to discover His presence that life's greatness does not consist in having, but in loving."
Today in his homily for the Epiphany of the Lord, Pope Francis reflected on the magi, or wise men, who bearing gifts, came to worship the Child Jesus in Bethlehem.
