In the past, this festival in our diocese a traditional date for the ordination, and the priest, whom I now mini trated, as well as my spiritual father are now ordained 58 years ago to the priesthood of Jesus Christ Congratulations been, and the first named. Ad multos annos!
My celebrant told once that his father had told him and ordained his course, why he kept that appointment, just the celebration of Transfiguration. You, the newly ordained priest should remember that they could just not at the revelation of the glory of Christ on Mount Tabor (who had them so manifest in the sacrament) remain and are likely, but that He should now follow to Jerusalem ., to Gethsemane to Golgotha
given a thought: Christ gives Tabor moments again and again and every person. This allows large events such as marriage, ordination, the young woman to be ordained, or perhaps a seemingly quite insignificant event - a confession, a conversation together by God - which is heading the Holy Spirit as a sacramental grenade.
What happens then?
a danger that I succumb to my blog design considering self-critical, sometimes, that of the "cottage building", the residence and detention will, which is in our small existence is not possible. That beauty passes by makes me always slightly melancholy. Maybe it's just a symptom of the virginal longing for eternity, oP ... As long as you yesterday because of the sight of the morning today and not lose, but it is probably less bad.
The other danger ... What remains now of my Tabor-hour, when I unpacked the everyday life again ...? should really grab me and turn it . Wen Christ touched the standards are changing: What I would not have previously come to mind, without which I can not live now (such as the Mass), which before perhaps was normal, does not fit anymore. But how long? Until the exuberance over? The pulse is back to normal when I think back to Tabor?
How to bridge the gap between the Transfiguration and daily life, such as matching the resistance of this contact with the happiness of Christ is a hard for me right now Nut ...
