THE LOST ART OF REVERENCE (Matthew 28:16-20):  07 June 2009 (Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity)

Today’s Readings

Dear God–Father, Son, Holy Spirit:

Nothing reminds me more of Your divinity than the mystery of the Trinity that we celebrate today:  You as the One True God, but revealed by the Lord Jesus as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Given such a truth, I can’t help but feel what the mystics have always known about You: Your transcendence and Your ineffability.  As early as the 12th century, the Second Lateran Council has taught that any image or knowledge of God that we have is more unlike You than like You.
