One day it will be our last time. And soon afterwards, we will meet Jesus, face to face.
We will see the One who allowed His crucifixion to save us. The one who waited for us, cured our weaknesses, walked with us in our trials and tribulations, who gave us peace and not anxiety, who gave us courage and not fear, hope instead of despair and protection against the wiles and snares of the devil. He loved us so much that He searched for us and gave all for us.
When we love, we make ourselves available to the person in question. Can we give away our very self? St Frances de Sales once said, "My soul is in danger if I do not hold it in my hands".
And so, for life with God, have a gentle and watchful eye on your soul. Will we have our soul to present to God or will the World and the devil possess it? Is emotion, trouble or unrest tossing our soul around? Be watchful of your soul so that no hatred, sin, or harmful desires rob you of it.
The Transfiguration happened. And in this miracle of Jesus Himself, we are shown the perfection of life in Heaven. Jesus is the bridge between heaven and earth. May our souls be in communion with God.
