Dear sisters and brothers,
This Sunday the Church celebrates the eternal mystery of the most Holy Trinity, Father,
Son and Holy Spirit, three persons but one God. The nature of God is something
theologians, mystics, poets, priests, kings, and you and me, have reflected on since
humans first discerned there is a higher authority within our lives. But we will never be
able to fully understand God within our earthly life. For God goes beyond our limited
ability to describe and understand the divine, the eternal, and we will only begin to
understand when we have been taken up into the fullness of life within God's embrace.
But what we can say is that the Christian understanding of God is a God of community, for
we believe in a God in which love flows, from Father to Son to Holy Spirt. This love then
overflows into the Church and into the world, so that we can begin to understand the
nature of God and also our own nature. For we too are called to dwell together in unity, in
love and support for each other, so that all can experience the fullness of life which we
can find in God.
Live out the life we have been given through the outpouring of God's love upon the world,
and join into the eternal dance of the Holy Trinity. The eternal dance in which we can find
our true self, where we finally understand the fullness of God within our lives, the God
who comes to us in the person of Jesus, the God who remains within us by the Holy Spirit,
from the God who is Father to us all.
With all blessings,
Fr Edward
