BELIEF AS TRUST

Second Sunday of Lent 
 Recently I heard two new takes on the story of Abraham and Isaac in the first reading today. First in Genesis 22:5 there is a line we do not have in the reading today. Abraham says to the servants; “We will come back to you.”  In other words, Abraham knew that he and Isaac would both be returning. Abraham trusted in God. 

 The second new insight I heard recently was the understanding that Abraham was a very old man at this point in time and Isaac was a strong adult man. Isaac could have overpowered his Dad at any point. But he trusted. 
 Saint Paul in the Second Reading today is reminding the believing community at Rome to trust in God. Indeed nothing can separate us from the love of God that comes in Christ Jesus. Now remember the community at Rome was experiencing great    sufferings, arrests and even death. Yet Paul’s message is one of trust.

 
 The Gospel for today is Jesus’ transfiguration in front of Peter, James and John. All three of them had to trust that Jesus surpasses the Law and the Prophets represented by Moses and Elijah. They had to trust, to come down the mountain and live the day-to-day journey towards Jerusalem with Jesus. 
 At  each and every Mass we attend, the Holy Sacrifice of the Eucharistic prayer is presented before us.  We have to believe and trust that simple gifts of bread and wine become the body, blood, soul and divinity of our Lord and Savior Jesus the Christ. 

 This Lent let us see belief as trust. And see Jesus is the one we trust in each and every day. 
 Pax Christi, 
 Fr. Dave
