Transfiguration of our Lord

Today we conclude the season by celebrating the Transfiguration of our Lord, when Jesus went up a mountain and showed himself to be divine. Then next Wednesday we observe Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent, as Jesus walks up another mountain and shows himself to be human. In the mystery of intertwined divinity and humanity we encounter Love incarnate for us and are reminded there is no place we can find ourselves in that God does not show up too. Dear ones, we are never alone.

Accompanying Scripture:
Exodus 24:12-18, Psalm 2, Matthew 17:1-9
