PRAYER FOR THE HEALING OF POPE FRANCIS

Loving and merciful God, we implore You
to look kindly upon Your servant, Pope Francis,
Touch him with your compassion and consolation.
Restore his health and renew his strength
in mind, body, and spirit.

Surround him with your peace
and the support of the prayers of your holy people.
We place Pope Francis in your healing love
through the doctors, nurses,
and medical professionals who take care of him.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Mary, Health of the Sick, pray for us.

The Feast of the Transfiguration of the Lord became popular in the West in the 11th century, and it was added to the Roman calendar in 1457 to commemorate the triumph against Islam in Belgrade. Previously, the Syrian, Byzantine, and Coptic ceremonies commemorated the Lord's transfiguration. The Transfiguration foreshadows the Lord's glory as God and His ascension into heaven. It anticipates the splendour of paradise, when we will see God face to face. Through grace, we have already received the divine promise of eternal life.

DAILY GOSPEL REFLECTION - AUGUST 6, 2024
THE WORD
Reading 1, Daniel 7:9-10, 13-14
Responsorial Psalm, Psalms 97:1-2, 5-6, 9
Gospel, Mark 9:2-10
Reading 2, Second Peter 1:16-19
IN OTHER WORDS
In ancient times when emperors or victorious generals went on parade while people acclaimed them, a servant would whisper to their ears: "Remember you are human" or words to that effect. In today's Feast of the Transfiguration, the Word of God reminds us: Jesus who is man is also God. This means that for some moments the divine glory of Jesus the Eternal Son of God was revealed to his chosen disciples. What are the lessons of this feast? First, it reveals the divinity of Jesus Christ, for in becoming man he remained God: two natures in one Person, the Eternal Son of the Father, the second Person of the Blessed Trinity. Secondly, it also reveals to the Apostles that Jesus is the Promised Messiah as attested to by the presence of Moses and Elijah. Thirdly, it is meant to remind the Apostles of who Jesus really is when the Passion and Death of Jesus happens; that with the remembrance of Christ's Transfiguration, they would not lose heart.
What are the lessons for us? First, we need to constantly adore Jesus as God. As we declare in the Gloria: "For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord, you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit in the glory of God the Father." Next, we need to enjoy being in the presence of the Lord. Like Peter, we say: Lord, it is good for me to be with you in prayer, in meditation, and in adoration." And lastly, not to lose heart in the face of the trials, temptations, and challenges of life; for we know that Jesus, God and man, will never leave us, and that one day we too will be transfigured into his image in heaven.
