TRINITY SUNDAY

Proverbs 8:22-31, Ps 8, Romans 5:1-5, John 16:12-15

Three together

A childhood memory is a Marist explaining the Trinity to my St Pat’s Napier Standard One class. His visual aid shamrock had an immediate effect. We knew that like Patrick we could explain this matter of faith to anyone. A confidence soon lost! Now when I make the Sign of the Cross and invoke the Father, Son and Holy Spirit I pray for a deeper understanding of their dynamic relationship that somehow includes me. This physical gesture plugs me into the powerful, relational Trinitarian energy flow. Try this practice.
