Trinity Sunday
Saturday, June 10, 2006
We had a great homily tonight from Deacon Bill. He spoke of the Trinity. How it is how God chose to reveal Himself to us.
The best part came when he spoke of the sign of the cross. When we make the sign of the cross we begin:
"In the name of the Father..." and we touch our heads to ask for wisdom and understanding, and to acknowledge God as Our Father.
"In the name of the Son..." and we touch our heart, the symbol of love. And God is love. Jesus is the great lover of the whole world.
In the name of the Holy Spirit..." and we touch each shoulder, asking that our arms and hands to the works of the Lord.
We finish with an, "AMEN". Ans we hold our 3 fingers together, another sign of the trinity.
It in itself is a prayer as we acknowledge the One God in Three persons.
The Trinity is a mystery. We can't explain it, however, it is our faith and we believe in the Trinity God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. AMEN!
