Transfiguration springs forth from the mystery of
faith, not from the greatness of the person, because the person who has been
chosen for God’s mission and vocation can also be a poor person, but he has
been chosen by God. This holds true certainly for the Church, for the priests,
for anybody the Lord has chosen, called, consecrated, anointed and set aside
for Himself. Like St. Paul, the person chosen has to say: it is no longer I who
live, but it is He Who lives in me; I represent Him, therefore respect is
addressed not to me, but to Him Whom I represent, Whom I bear. (The Covenant)
