Sunday, February 28, 2021: (2nd Sunday of Lent)

Jesus said: “My son, you felt full of joy today as if you were with Me and My apostles at My Transfiguration on Mt. Tabor, where you traveled a long time ago. This was a sign to you and My apostles of My glory when I will return. In the first reading from Genesis (22:1-14) Abraham was called even as I have called you, and you said: ‘Here I am.’ I called Abraham to offer up his only begotten son on Mt. Moriah, where you have been to the Dome of the Rock in the old city of Jerusalem. The angel held back Abraham’s knife so he did not kill Isaac. This gained Abraham a promise of many descendants. This is a parallel that God the Father gave Me up, His only begotten Son, when I died on the cross on Good Friday. This could be seen in My Transfiguration when God the Father spoke: ‘This is My beloved Son, listen to Him.’ Your whole Lenten Season is focused on the coming Triduum when I died on the cross for all of mankind in Holy Week.”
