The Most Holy Trinity

The Most Holy Trinity

When we come to worship, we usually make the sign of the cross. The words with the holy action 'In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit' remind us that there are three persons in God. The feast of the Holy Trinity is a celebration of the mystery of God as a family of love. This reminds us of a simple truth which we often forget, God's plan is that we share in his life of glory. By our baptism we are raised to a level at which we become sharers in the family life of God. We are born of God the Father, God the Son becomes our brother, and the love of God is poured into our hearts by the Holy Spirit. This revelation of his inner life of three persons, in which we have a share, is one of God's greatest gifts to us and it is the model towards which all of us should aim and strive

Every day is a day to love so we should strive to make the Holy Trinity a more practical part of our lives. Love is the binding force, so when we love we share in that community of love which is the living God. It calls on us to respond to the love of God, poured into our hearts by Christ and the Holy Spirit, and invites us to look forward to the day when we shall share in the glory of God, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
