Transfiguration

We act like Peter sometimes when we’re enjoying life and going through a stress-free period of our life. We are on vacation, enjoying a beautiful trip, a spectacular scene, spending time with friends, and we don’t want it to end. We feel on Cloud Nine and want it to last forever. But the reality is different, just as it was different with Peter and the other disciples - there was much work waiting for them, especially after Jesus went up to heaven. It is the same with all of us. Until last Christmas, everyone was doing well and preparing for a new year – yet little did they know how their lives would be turned upside down with the coronavirus. Lives were disrupted, schools closed, hospitals overwhelmed, businesses struggling, and the future pretty much unknown.  Let us pray that the transfigured Christ will heal the wounds of so many people all around the world.
