"While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud cast a shadow over them, then from the cloud came a voice that said, "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him." Matthew 17:5
What an amazing event, the transfiguration of Jesus, His face shone like the sun and His clothes became dazzling white. I have an image of Peter being a ball of nervous energy, he is experiencing this in the flesh with his own eyes. He had to be awe struck, he is seeing Moses who God established the old covenant with and Elijah who was known as the son of prophets. And then God speaks and tells them to "listen to Him". Do you listen to the words that Jesus speaks? Do you take Him at His word? Read His words and put yourself there with Jesus, and listen to Him.
Dear Heavenly Father, I struggle with a prayer this morning though I know you are near. I thank You for the day that lays ahead and I ask for Your holy will to be accomplished in our lives. Amen.
Mary, Mother of God, pray for us.
