This is My Chosen Son; Listen to Him

In this story of the Transfiguration, Jesus reveals His divinity to 3 chosen disciples.
He is the Messiah, prefigured and prophesied in the Old Testament.
The disciples, however, had an incomplete understanding of the Old Testament portrayal of the Messiah.
Only when the voice from the cloud proclaimed, “This is my Chosen Son”, did the reality of Jesus’ divinity, and a new mission, begin to dawn on the three disciples.
We too can have trouble grasping the reality of Jesus’ divinity and the essence of His mission.
What makes it hard for you to grasp the meaning of Jesus’ divine nature and mission?
What can help you to do this?
