Theme: God’s call and our response
1st
Reading: Genesis, chapter 12:1-4a
God called Abram out of his
ancestral home for a specific mission, with the promise of a reward. In the
same way, the Lord freely chose us for a purpose, which has divine rewards as
the benefit.
2nd
Reading: The second letter of Paul to Timothy, chapter 1: 8b-10
God has called us by the Grace
of our Saviour to be a holy people. The promise of eternal life thus belongs to
us.
Gospel
Reading: Matthew, chapter 17:1-9
The three disciples followed
the Lord to the mountain and were eyewitnesses to the transfiguration, an event
which can be seen, for now, as the hidden but true reality of God’s promise.
