Brothers and sisters, the Transfiguration unveils the profound mystery of Jesus’ life: his mission and path; but it does not free his followers from living reality with all its harshness and ambiguity. Let us pray.
Jesus is our way, truth, and life
• May the Church help us to discern and face this moment in history in all its depth to favor our following of Jesus and to continue his cause.
Jesus is our way, truth, and life
• May we and others face the message and path of Jesus, we are invited to leave our enclosures and approach the life of each brother.
Jesus is our way, truth and life
• May believers not remain on the mountain, in contemplation, but descend into reality and walk the path of history and life with our brothers and sisters.
Jesus is our way, truth and life
• May peace be possible in our world: reconciled families, friendly peoples, fraternal communities, dialogued relationships, paths of encounter, unity in diversity.
Jesus is our way, truth and life
• During this Lenten season, let us draw closer to the crucified ones of this world, to those who need a word of encouragement, a comforting embrace, a companionship that breaks loneliness…
Jesus is our way, truth, and life.
Father Mother God, may we live listening, attentive to the voice of the Master and the voices of our brothers and sisters, because only by listening do we grow as people and as believers.
