Transfiguration Sunday

Today is ‘Transfiguration Sunday’; a time of change. It is said to be a defining moment in our lives where our human nature meets God with Jesus as the connecting point. We moved through the season of Epiphany (a time of realizing that Jesus was born and continues to be born into the lives of his people) that lasted five Sundays. Now we enter a phase of transformation that for some of us might begin with ‘now what’. “I’ve walked the aisle and joined the church-now what?” “I’ve gone back to the church after a period of absence-now what?” “I’ve given my life to the Lord because it’s time for something different-now what? “Now what’, is a good place to start. It signals our surrender from the way it was before, to God’s way. I’ve heard it said like this, “You’ve left ‘your way’ for ‘Yahweh’. On this day as we enter the Lenten season; let’s ask God to give us a close examination of ‘our way’ and then let us be led into ‘God’s way’.

Yours Because He Lives,
