August 6

Feast of The Transfiguration of our Lord Jesus Christ

The Rule of St. Benedict: Chapter 54


On this glorious feast in which Sts. Peter, James, and John witnessed the splendor of Our Lord shining upon the peak, let us attend to that within us which, like St. Peter, needs to possess and control the Grace we are given.  Such needs are mountains to be brought low to prepare the way of the Lord.

And let us also attend to that within us which feels unworthy to receive from the generous hand of God.  Such feelings are valleys to be raised up.

When the Lord's path into or lives is level, we are able to receive God and bear God into the world, joyfully offering what has been entrusted to us for the benefit of all.
