Second Sunday of Lent

Genesis 15:5-12, 17-18; Psalm 27; Philippians 3:17-4:1, Luke 9:28-36.

The glory of the Lord

We hear of the glory of the Lord today in the story of the Transfiguration. He is the Son of God, the Chosen One. In his talking to Moses and Elijah we see that he is also the fulfilment of the Law and the prophets. Though we may relate to Jesus as a friend, he is also our Lord and God and it is fitting that we bow down and worship him. In what ways in our lives do we acknowledge Jesus as the Chosen One? How do we listen to him?
