Seeking Out Our Transfigured Lord

In today’s gospel (Mark 9:2-13), we are taken to Our Lord’s transfiguration.  But right now, I want us to consider how Jesus sets Peter, James, and John apart from His other disciples.  Let us picture this passage from their perspective, so that we may see Jesus looking at us individually, and taking us apart from society and our obligations, to be with Him.

Where can we experience the transfigured Jesus?  As the holy season of lent approaches, let us seek Him out all the more, that we may see Him glorified – before He is crucified.  We are called to seek Him out.

My parish is so blessed to have an adoration chapel.  We see the Eucharist, in a sense, transfigured, before us. 

Or we can choose to go on a retreat.  It can be within the quiet of a spare room, or we can go to a more formal version of a retreat at a retreat house. 

This is just brainstorming.  Find a place to see Our Lord transfigured.  I pray this weekend for all retreatants such as yourself.

Where will you go to find Jesus?
