SUMMARY:Vigils Readings - Transfiguration of the Lord
DESCRIPTION:THE GLORY OF GOD \nFrom the last “Angelus” message of Pope St Paul VI \n◊◊◊ \nThe Transfiguration of Our Lord\, recalled by the liturgy of today’s \nsolemnity throws a dazzling light on our daily life\, and makes us turn our mind \nto the immortal destiny which that fact foreshadows. On Mount Tabor\, Christ \nreveals for a few moments the splendor of his dignity\, and he manifests himself \nto chosen witnesses as he really is\, the Son of God\, “the glory of God and the \nvery stamp of his nature”. But it also shows the transcendent destiny of our \nhuman nature\, which he assumed in order to save us\, and which is destined – \nbecause redeemed by his sacrifice of irrevocable love – to participate in the \nfullness of life\, “in the inheritance of the saints in light”. \nThat body\, which is transfigured before the astonished eyes of the \napostles\, is the body of Christ our brother\, but it is also our body called to glory. \nThat light\, which bathes it\, is and also will be our share of inheritance and of \nsplendor. We are called to share such great glory because we are “partakers of \nthe divine nature”. And incomparable destiny awaits us if we honor our \nChristian vocation\, if we live a life that is logically consistent in word and deed \nwith the commitments that our baptism imposes on us…
