We heard from the second reading Saint Paul reminding
us that our earthly bodies will be transformed to the
heavenly glory. This transformation happens to us in our
spiritual journey. Our intimate relation and personal con-
versation through prayer will help us to have this transfor-
mation. After the transÞguration of Jesus, Peter said:
“Master it is good that we are here, let us make three
tents.” Let us also experience the same during our pray-
ers in the church.

Sunday Reading Reflections
First Reading: In the covenant between God and Abram
(Abraham), the trust and faith of Abraham is described as
“an act of righteousness.” As we continue the season of
Lent, what do you need to trust in from the Lord?
Second Reading: Paul urges the believers in Philippi to
stay focused on Jesus and on our “citizenship” in heaven.
How do you think Christians today can succeed in living
out this task?
Gospel: Peter, John, and James witness the transÞgura-
tion that revealed Jesus’ divinity. Why do you think the
three apostles “fell silent” from this encounter? ©LPi
