The transfiguration was a momentous occasion in Jesus’ life, a visible sign of His almighty power and glory when heaven and

earth moved a little clos-er. It is also a momentous

occasion for us, as we climb our many small

daily mountains, with Jesus.

"This is my beloved Son. Listen to him."

The Transfiguration bids us to look at Jesus, to follow Him. It gives a glimpse of the glory that awaits us. Can you imagine what it will be like when we are called home to see Jesus in His full glory? Peter, John and James received just a glimpse of God’s glory and they seemed quite overwhelmed. It also remind us again not to hold onto life and things of the world. We have this great promise waiting for us. May God’s will be done!

Spirituality of Saints

The pivotal event in

Catherine’s life came after

three years of solitude and

ascetic practices. In her early

years, Catherine was a

daughter in a busy home,

helping with domestic duties

and nursing the sick during

outbreaks of the plague. However, in adolescence, she

became attracted to prayer and solitude. During her

later years, more outward ministry, she sometimes

entered a trance in the middle of a conversation. She

also received the stigmata, the marks of Christ’s

passion, on her body, though until her death they were

visible only to her. A soul rises up, restless with tre-

mendous desire for God’s honor and the salvation of

souls. She has for some time exercised herself in virtue

and has become accustomed to dwelling in the cell of

self-knowledge in order to know better God’s

goodness toward her, since upon knowledge follows

love. And loving, she seeks to pursue truth and clothe

herself in it. If there is one thing that stands out in

Catherine's writings it is the "Allness" of God and the

"nothingness" of man, the "Infinity" of God and the

"emptiness" of man. In other words that we, except

for God, would not even exist. God had to bring us into

being.

Points for Reflection:

1. Considering St. Catherine’s thoughts of “Knowing

God, knowing myself" What is your inner dialogue

like? Are you living your life to the fullest right

now?

2. How might your commitment to prayer, poverty

of spirit, the Truth and contemplation expressed

in your life empower you?
