The world is offering us transfiguration, transformation.
If you do not like your body, exercise and change it.
If you do not like your face, get a face lift and change it.
If you do not like getting old, dye your hair or buy a new car.
The world however is only offering to change us on the outside.
It offers us nothing on the inside.
Contentment, peace, joy, self acceptance, forgiveness, love, and hope cannot be bought, botoxed, dyed, or exercised.
Because these things are not material.
They are spiritual!
Spiritual transformation can only come through doing spiritual things.
Prayer, penance, sacrifice, fasting.
These are the things that transform our spirits.
At the Transfiguration, the hidden glory of Christ was revealed and shown through.
What was inside of Him was revealed.
Beauty, love, hope, joy, peace, and forgiveness know no age and cannot be found in clothes, cars, homes or face lifts, because they all come from within.
The feast of the transfiguration is a time of interior transformation that truly changes our lives from the inside out!!
God Bless
