11th Week of Ordinary Time C – Sunday - The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, peace be with you. Today we stand in awe before the central mystery of our faith: that God is one God in three Persons — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This is not a puzzle for the mind alone, but a living mystery that shapes how we see God, ourselves, and the world. The Trinity is love — love shared perfectly within God and poured out upon creation, but which is so grand that we can never exhaust its depths and beauty. God is a continual stream of inexhaustible goodness, beyond anything our minds and hearts can ever comprehend — much like Saint Augustine’s encounter with the angel who disguised himself as a little boy on the beach, who told him that to understand the Trinity completely would be like emptying the ocean into a little hole in the sand that he had dug. Augustine was trying to write a most comprehensive treatise on the Holy Trinity.
