Feast of the Transfiguration of the Lord

 “Jesus goes before us to show us the way, both up the mountain and into heaven, and – I speak boldly – it is for us now to follow him with all speed, yearning for that heavenly vision that will give us a share in his radiance, renew our spiritual nature and transform us into his likeness, making us forever sharers in his Godhead and raising us to heights as yet undreamed of.”

                                                            -Anastasius of Sinai, Bishop

Today's Reflection:

What “mountain” am I ascending now?” How is the glory of the Lord and heaven reflected in it? To what extent am I permitting it to renew my spiritual nature and transform me into the likeness of Jesus? What are the special graces I am receiving in it and through it?
