Shining the Light of Christ in our Current Political Situation

Today for the feast of the Presentation of the Lord (traditionally known as "Candlemas"), the liturgy has us process into the church each holding a lit candle. The symbolism here is that Christ has now passed his light on to us, and we are to burn brightly in the world, attracting many living in darkness to Christ, the true Light. Christians throughout the centuries have done this, often effecting great changes for the good in civil society, and sometimes, even changing the world. May our light shine in the darkness!
