2nd Sunday of Lent - Year A - March 1, 2026

Sorry at na-late uli sa pagpost, buti at may nagpahiram ng laptop.

The 2nd Sunday of Lent Year A focuses on trust in God and the call to follow Him. The readings show how God leads His people and gives them strength for the journey.

• God’s Call to Trust: God calls Abram to leave his home and go to a new land. This shows that faith means trusting God even when the future is unclear.
• Jesus Reveals His Glory: Jesus takes Peter, James, and John up the mountain and is transfigured before them. This moment shows that Jesus is more than a teacher—He is the Son of God.
• Strength in Suffering: Paul reminds Timothy to be strong in suffering for the Gospel. Following Jesus is not always easy, but God gives strength and grace.
• God’s Promise of Life: Paul speaks of God’s plan to bring life through Jesus. This reminds us that God’s call leads to true life, not just for now but forever.
• Listen to Jesus: At the Transfiguration, God tells the disciples to listen to His Son. This reminds us to follow Jesus and trust what He teaches.
• Faith Leads to Blessings: Abram obeys God and is blessed. Faith in God always leads to something greater, even when we do not see it right away.

The 2nd Sunday of Lent Year A invites us to trust God’s plan. The readings remind us that God leads, strengthens, and blesses those who follow Him.

READINGS:

• First Reading – Genesis 12:1-4a: The LORD commands Abram to leave his homeland and go to a new land that God will show him. God promises to bless Abram and make him the father of a great nation, and Abram obeys, leaving his home as directed.
• Responsorial Psalm – Psalm 33: Lord, let your mercy be on us, as we place our trust in you.
• A prayer of trust in God’s mercy and justice. The psalmist praises God’s works and faithfulness, and acknowledges that God protects and delivers those who fear and hope in him, ultimately putting their trust in the Lord’s kindness.
• Second Reading – 2 Timothy 1:8b-10: Paul encourages Timothy to join in suffering for the gospel, reminding him that God has saved and called them to a holy life, not because of their own deeds, but because of God’s grace and purpose, which has now been revealed through Christ’s appearance and victory over death.
• Gospel – Matthew 17:1-9: Jesus takes Peter, James, and John up a mountain where he is transfigured before them, shining with a bright light, and they see Moses and Elijah talking with Jesus. A voice from heaven affirms that Jesus is God’s beloved son, and the disciples are told not to speak of the event until after Jesus has risen from the dead.
