TRINITY SUNDAY Foundation of our Faith and the Community The most difficult dogma of our faith is the mystery of the Trinity. It is one of those teachings that benefit little from explanation but a lot from reflection on our experience. We do not believe in three Gods, but we may act and pray in such a way that the Trinity seems to be three totally distinct Gods. Indeed they are distinct persons but together in one God. Popular piety with its emphasis on interrelationships and communication with God often loses sight of this absolute awesomeness, uniqueness and oneness of God. Unlike other religions of the world which go in search of God, the early Christians discovered that Jesus had reversed the experience and instead, He had come in search of all men and women. Like a hound of heaven, he pursues us to tell us about God. His revelation is extraordinary: God loves everyone of us so much that he sends his Son to reveal his plans for our salvation. Later the Son will continue this saving love by sending the Spirit to remind us of this reality. Paul sees his communities as constituted of the Trinity: through the grace of Jesus, the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit. Moreover, the Trinity shares in the action of each person for there is exclusively one God. As a community rooted in the Trinity, perhaps we may reflect on our attitude and response to God. Do we reflect the love of the Trinity? The Father loves the Son into being and their mutual love is so strong, personal and intimate: their love is the Holy Spirit. Does our love as a community constitute the parish so that without that deep, abiding love, the community would practically cease to exist? Does our community's love give birth to love for others in reaching out to them, thereby giving life where it otherwise would not be? On a personal level, how do we understand God? What are the images each one of us has of God? Has our image of God changed over the years? So many of us drag along behind us the image of God we had in school. When one image of God does not change we end up worshipping an image from our own past life, worshipping a God of our imagination and experience. Our image of God is best seem in the manner we pray. Do we see God as a friend, a boss, a judge, an acquaintance or some historical personality? Do we revere God, respect him and fear him? Which image predominates in our daily life? Do we relate to the Father, Son, Spirit or all three? Jesus has revealed the Father's love to us, and by doing so, also revealed to us a deeper understanding and appreciation of ourselves. Because of Jesus' revelation, we see ourselves as loved and cherished by God, personally sought after, objects of his compassion and love and individually taught by God. As God has done so much to show his love for us through Jesus, it is necessary for us to examine the quality of our response to him on this occasion of the Solemnity of the Holy Trinity. The questions that we need to internalize are: Do I yearn for God? What is my experience of God? How do I respond to what Jesus has revealed about God? penned by ash.
