Are we truly awake in our spiritual lives? This powerful message challenges us to examine the state of our faith, drawing parallels between physical drowsiness and spiritual slumber. We're reminded of the disciples' struggle to stay alert in crucial moments, such as during Jesus' transfiguration and in Gethsemane. The scripture highlights how even when physically present, we can miss profound spiritual experiences if we're not fully aware. This teaching urges us to break free from routines without purpose, apathy, and disengagement that can lull us into a spiritual sleep. Instead, we're called to practice mindfulness, remove distractions, and deepen our spiritual practices. By doing so, we open ourselves to witness God's transformative work in and around us, just as the disciples did on the mountaintop. This message is a wake-up call for all of us to renew our commitment to living an alert and purposeful faith.
