An Ah Ha Moment: The Transfiguration Reveals God’s Entire Plan of Salvation (Lk 9:28b-36) (2 LT)

The one scene of the Transfiguration reveals all that God has done in the life death and resurrection of Jesus. Our salvation is a New Covenant, patterned on the first covenant, and foretold by all the prophets. This scene also strengthens us for our Exodus, from the slavery of sin and death to the promised land of eternal life. God has entered into a relationship with us, a covenant, and has promised to faithfully love us and care for us all the days of our life, till we spend eternity with him in heaven our promised land. Each Eucharist is also a Transcendent moment where we consummate that marriage with God truly present, and we are transfigured into His Glory. So this lent, let us take time to climb the mountain, enter into prayer with scripture and sacrament, to encounter our God, so he can reveal to us more about our life's journey.
