The Lord demands of Israel, "Get up and plead your case. Look at what I have done for you and how you have responded."
As we move through these weeks between Epiphany and Lent, we may well need to contemplate the answer to that question ourselves. We celebrated the birth of our Savior and acknowledged with joy the impact of that birth on the world. But, how did Christmas and Epiphany affect us? How are our lives different because of them? What do we do? What do we pay attention to? Do we even remember that the Lord is the source of all our gifts? Would anybody watching us use our resources catch on to the fact that we realize that we know and act like God provided them to us?
