Stepping from dark shadows
into dazzling sunlight;
transfiguration.
So the glowing Jesus
appeared before a select few,
who came, in time, to appreciate
that light emanates from deep within
the soul/spirit/mind/heart
of the one who shines.
“Listen to him,” speaks one
who is traditionally thought of
as shining from on high.
But his words are difficult;
commanding a lifetime
of exploration and striving to comprehend;
and still the grasping is not complete.
They call us all to glow with him
as his curiously present spirit
cajoles and reshapes
our soul/spirit/mind/hearts,
beckoning us to step
from comfortable shadows
into healing light;
to share his outrage
and to become joined with him
in weeping pain,
suffering love
and unfathomable joy.
