Co-heirs of the King of Glory

"Your lightning lighted the world; the earth quivered and trembled." Introit
​"O God, Who in the glorious Transfiguration of Thine Only-begotten Son, didst confirm the mysteries of the Faith by the testimony of the fathers: and Who, in the voice which came from the shining cloud, didst wondrously foreshow our perfect adoption as sons: deign in Thy mercy to make us co-heirs with this King of Glory, and grant that we may be made partakers of that same glory". 
Collect from the Mass of the Transfiguration
​"When He tells us that Jesus is His beloved Son, the Father reveals to us His life; and when we believe in this revelation, we participate in the knowledge of God

Himself. The Father knows the Son in endless glory; as for us, we know Him in the shadows of faith whilst awaiting the light of eternity. The Father declares that the Babe of Bethlehem, the Youth of Nazareth, the Preacher of Judea, the Victim of Calvary is His Son, His well-beloved Son; our faith is to believe this.

"It is an excellent thing in the spiritual life to have this testimony of the Father ever present, as it were, before the eyes of the heart. Nothing upholds our faith so powerfully. When we read the Gospel, or a Life of our Lord, when we celebrate his mysteries, when we visit Him in the Blessed Sacrament, when we prepare ourselves to receive Him in our hearts in Holy Communion, or when we adore Him after having received Him, in our whole life, in fine, let us try to have these words habitually before us: 'This is My beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased.'

"And let us then say: Yea, Father, I believe these words, I will repeat them after Thee: this Jesus Who is within me through faith, through Communion, is Thy Son; and because Thou has said it, I believe it; and because I believe it, I adore Thy Son, so as to render Him my homage; and by Him, in Him, so likewise to render to Thee, O Heavenly Father, in union with Thy Spirit, all honour and all glory." - Abbot Marmion
