Christ’s countenance is shining like the sun

Good Morning!! Christ’s countenance is shining like the sun. His clothes are "dazzling white." It’s a moment of holiness and majesty, and Peter doesn’t want it to end. "Let us make three dwellings." Peter wants to stay on the mountaintop. He wants to prolong the experience.

"Master, it is good for us to be here; let us make three dwellings."—Luke 9:33 (NIV)

The danger in our mountaintop experiences is that we try to freeze them and make them permanent. And so a life which might have been a voyage of discovery and growth instead is chained to the past. A mountaintop is a nice place to visit, but you don’t want to live there.

God's people are aways on the move,...we are either heading into,...moving through,...or coming out of something.



Father God, whenever we expreience those rare moments of holiness and majesty,...like Peter we never want them to end. But we are Your people and You are our God,...and we will follow Your guideinse. In Jesus' name, Amen.
"God’s presence brings great comfort."
