Father Csaba’s reflection on the gospel Monday 6 August 2018 Feast of the Transfiguration….
‘This is my Son, the Beloved; with him I am well pleased; listen to him!’
The Heavenly Father speaks rarely , but even then He directs our attention to His beloved , precious Holy Son!! How good it is to see this great , living community of love, the Holy Trinity ! We were all invited into this community of love , our place is there , as at the bottom of our heart we are all desiring to be loved , so that we ourselves become beloved ,together with our loved ones forming a community with the Holy Trinity !
The main purpose of our lives , as we teach the children as well in the catechism : to get to know, to get to love and become one with the Holy Trinity !! Yes , our goal is during the course of our earthly life to get to know God better and better and His created world , the creatures, our brethren ! Knowing our Creator we admire Him for His greatness, beauty , wisdom, goodness , and exactly for this we are desiring to touch , become one in love with the Infinity in eternity !!
With love ,
Father Csaba

Six days later, Jesus took with him Peter and James and his brother John and led them up a high mountain, by themselves. And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became dazzling white. Suddenly there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, talking with him. Then Peter said to Jesus, ‘Lord, it is good for us to be here; if you wish, I will make three dwellings here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.’ While he was still speaking, suddenly a bright cloud overshadowed them, and from the cloud a voice said, ‘This is my Son, the Beloved; with him I am well pleased; listen to him!’ When the disciples heard this, they fell to the ground and were overcome by fear. But Jesus came and touched them, saying, ‘Get up and do not be afraid.’ And when they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus himself alone.
As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus ordered them, ‘Tell no one about the vision until after the Son of Man has been raised from the dead.’
Matthew 17:1–9
