To Marvel at the Mystery of the Trinity
Triune God,
Sundays are sacred. On this Sunday, many Christian churches focus on the mystery of the Trinity. We marvel not only at the complexity of this teaching, but also the comfort it brings us. That you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – yet one God, not three – should work in perfect harmony to accomplish your unified goal of my salvation, leaves me amazed by your gracious love and divine direction for my life and eternity. When I struggle with doubt and confusion, failing to make sense of you as my triune God, let this teaching remind me that you are on your own divine level. The Creator does not need to explain himself to the created, as if I could grasp your glorious wonder anyway. Instead, keep me in reverent awe of you. Let the Church continue to faithfully confess you, the true and triune God, always.
In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen.
