In today’s gospel we reflect on Jesus’ transfiguration and perhaps we are able to see a glimpse of our own conversion. During this time of preparation for the resurrection of our Lord, we are invited to an inner change that can transform our lives completely.
So how do we do that? Well, the first step is to simply spend time walking with the Lord and allow Him to supply our every need. I know sometimes this is not always easy, but we all need to be changed. We all need to soften our hearts and lean on God just a little more. It is during the challenges and difficulties in life that we allow Jesus to transform our hearts.
Just like the apostles in today’s gospel, we too can have a mountain top experience. And if you have ever experienced that then you know we eventually have to come down from the mountain and pick up our cross, but the good news is we do so with Christ by our side. Then slowly as we come to “know, love and serve the Lord,” we grow in trust. We begin to open our hearts, our eyes and our ears to the one who renews our lives.
Mother Mary, pray for us. Jesus we trust in you.
