I get these daily "Saint of the Day" emails from a Catholic organization, and they are often really interesting. Today's email was not on a particular saint, but on the story of Christ's transfiguration, which appears in all three Synoptic Gospels. Included was a quote from Aquinas, from which I have borrowed:
having displayed
his splendor and beauty
he now shapes and colors
those who are his
so that we might be
transformed
I love that image...and this is the glorious transformation defined by the Apostle Paul:
