Here’s a
prayer reflection on the transfiguration of Jesus Christ. It was
written by Anne Osdieck.
Reflection on the Gospel
(based on Matthew 17:1-8, Mark
9:2-8, Luke 9:28-36 )
And he was transfigured before them….
In such blinding brightness,
his everyday clothes—
dazzling white
as no eyes
on earth
had ever seen.
his everyday clothes—

as no eyes

Friends
caught a bewildered glimpse
of who he really
was.
O Christ,
caught a bewildered glimpse
of who he really
was.
O Christ,
take us to the mountain.
Transform
our humdrum lives,
all our doings—
and our very
being
all our doings—
and our very
being
into your
love.
