In Mark 9, we see Jesus shining with the Glory of God for the first time...

The transfiguration of Jesus that took place on top of that mountain was a promise & glimpse into a kind of life beyond what is apparent to earthly eyes. He was allowing them to see things from a Kingdom perspective, see Him the way God sees Him...filled with the light of His glory. As we go from the mountain, it’s important to remember things from that perspective, no matter what comes against us...we are all inherited children of God filled with His glory.
