At that time: Jesus took with him Peter and James and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain apart. And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his garments became white as light. And behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, talking with him. And Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is well that we are here; if you wish, I will make three broths here, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah.” Matthew 17:1b-4. St. Pope John Paul II said, The Transfiguration invites us to open the eyes of our hearts to the mystery of Christ& glory, so that we may be transformed by His light.
Let us pray, Lord Jesus, You took Peter, James, and John up the mountain to strengthen their faith and prepare them for the scandal of Your coming Cross. May the light of Your glory shine into our hearts, transforming us from within and giving us strength to follow You faithfully. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
