GOOD NEWS ::t-ha I zTimothy r:8b-ro / Matthew r7:r-g Some people get excited about moving. l'm not one of them. I don't like the boxes and the mess, and lfind it hard to get settled in a new place. 5o I can't imagine what 75-year-old Abram thought when God told him to leave his homeland and set out for a place he'd never seen. Genesis

I stand in wonder of faith so strong that it finds the Word of

God

compelling with no evidence that the promises will come true. But in our long history as a people of God, God is forever waking people up or giving them a vision of a different life, usually far from where they are. So it is with our spiritual life as well. ln today's Gospel, Jesus leads Peter, James, and John up a high mountain and into a vision of Jesus as the glorious Son of God. Wherever they had been in their faith, this was a radical call to move, to grow deeper, and to embrace the identity of the man they called Jesus.

Until that moment, Jesus was a compelling preacher and healer. On top of that mountain, he became the fulfillment of the Law and the Prophets (Moses and Elijah represent those pans of the Old Testament canon).

Friday, March zr: 8 am Mass: Shalimar & Bryant

When Peter, James, and John heard the words 'tlisten to him" coming from the cloud, they could no longer pretend this was an ordinary religious figure. They would never be the same, and the journey would lead them to the cross and beyond.

The best place to pray is in solitude. But solitude in this doesn't mean an isolated place; it is, rather, a state of the

Many Christians can enter into a state of solitude on a crowded train. I've talked with others who find solitude while sitting on a bench in a crowded shopping mall. Flowever, to cultivate this interior state that opens a Christian to heartfelt conversation with God, many of us need to physically shut out distractions. fu Jesus advised, go into your room-your secret place---close the door, and pray there. For some people, this "secret plzce" is a church or chapel. Many people pray before or after Mass. Some churches have a special oratory or chapel for the Blessed Sacrament.

But, like you, many people find

it difiicult to go to a

church or chapel every day, so some of them devote a special corner of their home to prayer. This prayer corner usually has a Bible, crucifix, statue, sacred picture, candle, or plant. We can find solitude in the car, in a favorite nature spot, in the ga.rden, or on a morningjog. Once you start looking for it, solitude isn't as difficult to find as you'd expect, because God is present in every place and in every moment-so wherever we can find solitude, he will be there. Fr. Miclnel Brelil, CSsR sundaybulletin@liguori.org
