The Transfiguration concerns us because we are called not only to witness the glory of God's Son, but to live it. In fact, since we are with Christ, his glory invests us too, transforming our body and our soul. Then we live in his love, which is the light that illuminates and transforms us, our human relationships and our look to everyday life changes, is transformed. We look at reality in faith.
The Transfiguration of Christ is the source of our hope and call to welcome always in our heart, even in the darkest night, Jesus Christ, lamp that never turns off, because "what for the body's eyes is the sun that we see, is to the eyes of the heart". (St. Augustine).
We are called to be witnesses of the transfigured Christ,
through a life of prayer and work, in silence and daily common life.
