Friends of the Rosary,
We celebrate today, August 6, the Feast of the Transfiguration, which foretells the glory of the Lord as God and His Ascension into heaven.
It anticipates the glory of heaven, where we shall see God face to face.
From the Catechism of the Catholic Church, #554, we learn:
From the day Peter confessed that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God, the Master “began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things… and be killed, and on the third day be raised.”
Peter scorns this prediction, nor do the others understand it any better than he does. In this context, the mysterious episode of Jesus’ Transfiguration takes place on a high mountain, before three witnesses chosen by himself: Peter, James, and John. Jesus’ face and clothes become dazzling with light, and Moses and Elijah appear, speaking “of his departure, which he was to accomplish at Jerusalem”.
A cloud covers him, and a voice from heaven says: “This is my Son, my Chosen; listen to him!”
Ave Maria!
Come, Holy Spirit, come!
To Jesus through Mary!
Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.
Please give us the grace to respond with joy!
