The Holy Trinity is the central mystery
of the Christian faith. In the one true God, there are three
distinct persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The best known
reference to the Trinity is found in Matthew’s gospel.
There Jesus tells his disciples:
“Go
then, to all peoples everywhere, and make them My disciples, baptizing
them in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.”
Matthew
28:19
Some
people see the sun as an image of the Trinity. Its light is an
image of the Father who created the world saying, “let there
be light!” Its heart is the image of Jesus who saved us
by the warmth of his love. Its energy is an image of the Holy
Spirit, who energizes us with grace.
