SECOND SUNDAY OF LENT
“Is this what God wants of me” is a question that we
often ask of ourselves. We want to be sure that we are doing
the right thing. At times, we will just have to trust; at other
times, we will have a reassurance that we are doing the right
thing. As we reflect upon God’s word today, we see that
Abram (later to be called Abraham) wanted to know what
God’s will in his life was. God made a covenant with him. In
the event of the Transfiguration of Jesus, God spoke with
basically the same words that He spoke at the Baptism of Jesus.
“This is My beloved Son; listen to Him.” With Moses and
Elijah appearing, and the words of God the Father, it was a
confirmation to Jesus that He was the fulfillment of the Law
and the Prophets and that He was to undergo death on the cross.
