TRANSFIGURATION: LOOKING BEYOND SUFFERINGS
The Church encourages us this season of Lent to pray more, do some sacrifices and be more charitable. These are the pillars of our Lenten observance. We know very well that these are rooted and connected to Jesus own prayer and fasting for forty days, in order to prepare for his self-giving mission - to suffer and die for the people He loved. Because of these practices, Lent is commonly perceived as a time of sacrifice and selflessness, connected to Christs own example. No pain, no gain, as we simply put it. The glory and triumph of Christ passes through suffering and death. The transfiguration of Jesus reminds us that suffering is not our destiny. It is just a means to reach our glorious state. Our temporary and earthly sufferings are nothing compared to the glory that is to be revealed in Christ, and his transfiguration is a foretaste of this heavenly glory. This Transfiguration experience gives strength to our faith and hope that God will give us this same destiny and we will have glorified bodies in eternity.
