Second Sunday of Lent Cycle A
Last Sunday we entered the desert with Jesus facing the snares of temptation. This Sunday we climb to the high mountain in witnessing Jesus’ transfiguration. What high mountain must we climb for us to witness Jesus’ transfiguration? We must climb the high mountain of listening to Jesus, the high mountain of being pleasing to him, the high mountain of opening ourselves to the touch of his presence. When we climb this mountain, we forsake our own agenda of pitching the tent of satisfaction with our own works to enter into the glory of the life Jesus offers us. The mountain is steep; the climb is ours to choose the vision at the top is divine – “white as light,” shining “like the sun.” Can we see him? Can we see Jesus in these days of Lent?
