The feast of the Blessed Trinity was introduced in the ninth century and was only inserted in the general calendar of the Church in the fourteenth century by Pope John XXII.
Looking at the Holy Trinity – the questions that arise – “Who are they?” “What they are saying?” and “Why not just the 3 persons alone?” Instead of worrying on these questions, it is better for us to ask a useful question “How can I can get closer to Triune God - God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit who is already dwells in every one of us?
We celebrate this Trinity Sunday to meditate on God that we believe. It is not enough to say “I believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty,” “I believe one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God,” and “I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Giver of life who proceeds from the Father and the Son.”
It is perhaps more important to know what God I believe in and the quality of God that I believe in. How can we develop our intimate and healthy relationship with each person of the Trinity?
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and every shall be, without end. Amen.
