God as Community


"The Trinity means that God is a Community." ~ Robert Dueweke

We are not meant to be hermits but to live in relationship with others. Today is a day of celebrating God's own community as Creator, Saviour, and Spirit. Who God is puzzles people. We look for answers and sometimes are left unsatisfied by our human knowledge of the Trinity. Today's feast gives some understanding of the complexity of God. We are one with a God who is multi-faceted, and unlimited by our small minds.

In the Ignatian Exercises, God is believed to be in all things and we must seek the holy in all that we encounter. Is this not what this feast also emphasizes? God is not to be boxed in, not even understood. God is to be worshiped and adored in all the glory and majesty that is God's. As always, the Creator is about the work of healing and we are reminded today that God is a community--and we are one body with God--it is here that we will find our healing.

Look for evidence of the Trinity blowing through your life today. What do you see? May grace and peace be yours.

Peace,

Suzanne
