Holy Trinity Sunday

God’s eternal existence (Father) is expressive (Word) and unitive (Love) and when you live out a Christian life with Christ in the Spirit, you’re living out the mystery of [the triune] God in a conscious way, folding yourself back into the eternal reality of God, and able to live the most profound life possible.

The Father will send the Holy Spirit in his name

If anyone loved me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come and make out home with him”. The Father and the Son will make their home with us in the Holy Spirit when we ask God that we will be loving people.

Barnabus – Son of encouragement

Good Shepherd Sunday

Today, we can pray for each other that we may hear and follow Jesus’ voice as he leads us through the coming week – probably a quiet voice, not a commanding voice, that keeps us aware of others who are also ‘the flock’.

A despondent Peter spent the night looking for fish, but what he found at dawn was self-knowledge and Christ-knowledge and became the very first Bishop of Rome as a result.

The Mercy and Justice of God

The challenge for us is whether we can see ourselves not as the woman caught in adultery but as the person who is caught up in forgiveness.
