September 2010 Newsletter: The Voice of the Father - A Second Time

Dear Friend of St. Athanasius Academy:

FIRST HIS BAPTISM – NOW HIS TRANSFIGURATION

"This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

The Uncreated Grace and Power of the Lord is revealed to us a second time. This time at His Transfiguration. Not from a sense of obligation, but for our sake, just as a father honors us and a mother offers her child comfort. Best, this divine providence is natural and thus unconditional. Music of the Church helps summarizes the significance and power of His Transfiguration on Mount Tabor: “... O Sovereign Lord, taking Thy chief disciples, Thou wast transfigured on this day, high upon holy Tabor, whereon Elijah and Moses stood in great awe and trembling as they Thy servants talked with Thee. Like them, we give Thee worship, O Savior Christ, with Thy Father and Thine All-holy Spirit, Who from a Virgin does shine forth for mortal man's salvation.”
