Today is the feast of the transfiguration of the Lord. Matthew 17:1-9 Lord, it is good that we are here... Jesus often went to the mountain alone. On this rare and glorious occasion, he had Peter, James and John accompany him. What they saw wasnt only extraordinary for them but monumental for all of us who benefit from their experience. The account attests to Jesus divine nature and gives insight into his earthly mission. The disciples, too, were transformed. During a time of doubt about Jesus public ministry, these disciples share in a revelation that serves as the solid foundation for their convictions and strengthens their resolve to proclaim him as the Son of God. May we always delight in the dazzling glory of God, we pray.
