LADYSMITH TRINITY SUNDAY
INTRODUCTION:
Today we celebrate the feast of the Most Holy Trinity: God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We celebrate this feast because now, the time of Easter is over and we want to acknowledge, that Easter was not the work of the Son alone; it was the loving action of all three: the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The trinity is not just connected with our lives, it is our life. The Father is not just any Father but our Father. The Son not any Son, but Son with us, of the same Father; and the Spirit is not just any spirit, but the spirit living in us.
GOSPEL – JOHN 16: 12 – 15
Jesus said to his disciples: “I have much more to tell you, but you cannot bear it now. But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to all truth. He will not speak on his own, but he will speak what he hears, and will declare to you the things that are coming. He will glorify me because he will take from what is mine and declare it to you. 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.”
