A FRESH PERSPECTIVE ON THE SUNDAY READINGS His Word Today by Rev. William J. Reilly The Most Holy Trinity May 22, 2016 “Jesus said to his disciples: ‘I have much more to tell you, but you cannot hear it now. But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all truth… Everything that the Father has is mine; for this reason I told you that he will take from what is mine and declare it to you.” “….because the love of God has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us.” Our faith today tells us two things. The first is the existence of the Trinity, as the passage of St. John speaks of Father and Spirit referred to by Jesus himself. The second is that the mystery of the Trinity is not something not distant from us, but it is within, and has been ‘poured out into our hearts. Maybe I can bless myself more reverently as I proclaim my faith in the mystery of God. When I see an athlete rapidly make the sign of the cross, may it remind me, not of faith, but of what He has poured into my heart. When I am looking for direction on a GPS or map, may I be reminded that it is the promised spirit of Jesus who will guide me. When I am in doubt, making a decision, may I ask the Spirit, the gift of the Father and Son, to assist me. I cannot fully understand this mystery, but can acknowledge it and use it well.

It is much more than a “day off” or a three day weekend. It is a time to seriously reflect on the sacrifices made by millions for our freedom. Many have paid the ultimate price of life itself, others serious, and sometimes life long injuries. Moreover, we are remembering all those who served and had placed themselves in danger. They are heroic and deserve our deepest gratitude. Each day we breathe the air of freedom. We owe it in part to so many who have given it to us through their sacrifices. May this day be one of happiness for you and your family, and keep all those now in uniform in your prayers.
