Matthew 17


"When they had lifted their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only."  v.8

Read chapter 17.
How cool that Peter, James, and John got to go alone with Jesus and see Him transfigured before them.  Plus getting to see Moses and Elijah.  I wonder how they knew it was them since they didn't have pictures then. Maybe they had name tags or admit conversation called each other their names?
Well the best part is that when it all fades away Jesus Only is there.  Peter, James and John seem to get caught up with all that was miraculously happening and putting Elijah and Moses on the same place as Jesus, yet when all fades away who still remains?  Do we let the business in our life distract us from the One and Only?  Do we put others on the same pedestal (or higher) than Jesus?  
Jesus ALONE  is to be praised!
