Transfiguration-Feb 26-2017
Jesus is transfigured-transformed-in the presence of Peter and James and John. And on this Feast of the Transfiguration, we as his disciples are called upon to also be transfigured and transformed by the presence of Jesus in our lives. If we are not, why not? If so, how? As we stand on the threshold of Ash Wednesday and our 40 day Lenten journey, let’s ponder how the presence of Jesus transfigures our lives. Jesus and his disciples move form the mountaintop to the valley of Jerusalem on his journey to the Cross and beyond. In the days to come, together let’s ponder how the presence of Jesus in our lives transfigures and transforms us-calling us to acts of forgiveness, compassion, endurance, praise, and self-sacrificing love as together we serve God and share Christ’s love with all.
