Reflection for an Epiphany Psalm

Revd Derek Akker writes…

I hope your Christmas and New Year celebrations went well.

Here are some thoughts for Epiphany .

Firstly, some words from an Epiphany Carol

I sought him dressed in finest clothes,
where money talks and status grows;
but power and wealth he never chose:
it seems he lived in poverty.

And so, distinct from all we’d planned,
among the poorest of the land,
we did what few might understand:
we touched God in a baby’s hand.
(Iona Community)

God bless and the best of wishes  for 2026, hoping for a more peaceful year where justice reigns.

Fr Derek
