En el Segundo Domingo de Cuaresma, la Iglesia nos invita a reflexionar sobre la Transfiguración de Jesús, un evento que revela su gloria divina. El Evangelio de San Lucas nos narra que Jesús sube a la montaña para orar, y durante esta oración, su rostro cambia, irradiando el esplendor de la gloria de Dios.
En otras partes de la Sagrada Escritura, encontramos ejemplos similares, como el rostro resplandeciente de Moisés después de su encuentro con Dios. Es posible que nosotros hayamos tenido experiencias similares durante una oración profunda, adoración Eucarística o meditando en la Palabra de Dios, cuando nuestros corazones estaban llenos de alegría, paz y luz interior, y las personas a nuestro alrededor podían experimentar la luz que emanaba de nosotros. Luz de estar en la presencia de Dios.
En la Transfiguración, aparecen Moisés y Elías, simbolizando la Torá, la Ley y los Profetas. La Ley y los Profetas encuentran su cumplimiento en la persona de Jesús. Juntos, Moisés, Elías el Profeta y Jesús representan la totalidad de las Escrituras. La Transfiguración enfatiza que el encuentro con Jesús está intrínsecamente ligado al compromiso con la Palabra de Dios. Para presenciar la gloria de Dios, debemos ascender a la alta montaña de las Escrituras, permitiendo que iluminen nuestras vidas.
Lucas es el único evangelista que nos narra el tema de la conversación de Jesús con Moisés y Elías: hablan de su éxodo, su viaje hacia la cruz y la resurrección. Los discípulos, sin embargo, no entienden; se adormecen, como también lo harán en el huerto de Getsemaní. En los discípulos, nos vemos a nosotros mismos, a menudo estamos distraídos o cansados cuando Dios nos llama a velar y orar.
Pedro, sintiéndose abrumado por la experiencia, anhela construir tiendas de campaña, queriendo quedarse en ese momento tan especial. Sin embargo, la voz del Padre nos impulsa a hacer una sola cosa: “Escúchenlo”.
La Cuaresma es un tiempo que nos sirve para escuchar la Palabra de Dios, su voluntad y su presencia en nuestra vida cotidiana.
Pidámosle a Dios esta semana que podamos abrazar su luz para transformarnos, guiándonos hacia adelante con fe, confianza y esperanza.
