The Most Holy Trinity Ma<hew 28:16-20
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
(Ma�hew 28:19)
O�en enough, our thoughts about the Holy Trinity tend to
focus on the ques*on of logis*cs: how can there be one God in
three Persons? We may think of St. Patrick’s analogy of the
shamrock with its three leaves to help us. But no single picture
can possibly explain the complexity, the depth, and the beauty
of our God.
Rather than a mathema*cal mystery to be solved, the Trinity
is a spiritual mystery to be savoured. It is God revealing Himself
to us and convincing us of His love and care for us.
Father. Revealing Himself as our heavenly Father, God proved
that He is not a distant, fickle, or vindic*ve god. He is a God for
whom family is everything. Like a father, He wants to be close
to you. He promises to care for you and look a�er you. He
wants nothing but good for you. He has gone so far as to name
you his heir!
Son. When God came to earth, He didn’t come in power and
majesty. Rather, He “emp*ed Himself” and became one like us
(Philippians 2:7). Many were expec*ng a Messiah who would
lead Israel to military victory and poli*cal independence. But
Jesus came as brother and friend. He established His kingdom,
not by force, but by self-sacrificial love. His message of mercy is
meant to melt our hearts, not make us cower in fear.
Holy Spirit. God didn’t disappear when Jesus ascended to
heaven. Quite the opposite: He became even closer. God
dwells in your heart! He is always with you, always ready to
pour out His love and to make you more like Him. He is always
with the Church, feeding us with word and sacrament. He is
always in the world, forming us into one family in Christ.
This is the true mystery of the Trinity: that our God—Father,
Son, and Holy Spirit—loves us deeply and treats us with great
tenderness and mercy.
“Holy God, we praise your name! Lord of all, we bow before
you!”
What relationships give my life meaning? Am I able to give myself freely and receive joyousl y? How and when have I been aware of God's presence and love?
Who in my family, community, neighbourhood needs to hear of God's love... needs to hear, "God is wit h you"?
