We've all been baptized in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Our Christian life is marked by the sign of the cross. Each of our Eucharistic celebrations, every prayer in church or at home, before eating or getting up. The Sign of the Cross is a summary of our faith in God is our first profession of faith. Yet to speak of the Trinity, words fail us.
is that too often it seems, we seek to explain the "Trinity" when there is enough to live. So, it is necessarily wrong. One God in three persons, said to be consubstantial, that is to say, of the same nature and yet distinct from one another. You understand something about this gibberish? After sufficient to state a belief in God and avoid some errors in doctrine, we made the incomprehensible Trinity, abstract and useless.
But the originality of faith, too little known by the Christians themselves, is to believe in a God who is love itself communication. God as revealed in Jesus Christ, is manifested as a unity of communion, as a movement of donations. Father is opened every gift, he gives himself. The Son receives the Father, it is thanks to the Father. And the Spirit, we might say, is the relationship between the two, it means free and unlimited.
Trinitarian confession is not the result of speculation. I have no evidence or scientific explanation. To be honest, I barely understand how God made to live this relationship in itself, but what I am sure that the true face of God is Jesus who reveals it. He speaks of God as a Father who finds joy in giving everything. He tells us he is the beloved Son since forever and he shares everything with the Father. And it's even Jesus promises the Spirit who will renew the face of the earth and extend its presence among us. Such a God, the living God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. And "there is no other."
We would like God in our image, but it is we who are in his image. Like the Trinity, we are called to form families and communities united in our respect for diversity. Transforming our loneliness into solidarity, that is our mission Son and daughters of God.
Remember, faith is not believe that God exists, but to believe that I exist for God. Through him, with him and in him, dare to live as God, love and fully given.
