It is good for us to be here!


As Peter was taking in the grandeur of the Transfiguration, he blurted out: 

“Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.” (He did not know what he was saying.) - Luke 9:33

Even though Peter couldn't fully comprehend what he was witnessing, the one thing he got right was that it was truly amazing to witness the gathering of Jesus, Moses and Elijah. Perhaps his words 'it is good for us to be here' are even a little understated. In modern language he could have been excused for shouting out: This is Epic! This is Awesome!

His heart was probably pumping and his adrenaline following so strongly, that all he could think of was 'let me hold onto this moment for as long as possible.' 

Can you relate to this at all? When was the last time you experienced something so profound and beautiful that your heart sang: 'it is good to be here!'
