“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellow-
ship of the Holy Spirit be with you all!” —2 Corinthians 13:13
When God revealed to Moses that His name was “Lord” and that He was
“a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger and rich in kindness and
fidelity” (Ex 34:6), “Moses at once bowed down to the ground in
worship” (Ex 34:8). Moses immediately knew that when God gives greater
revelation of Who He is, this is an event of great significance.
There are 3 R’s in life: revelation, relationship, and responsibility. When
the Holy Spirit of Pentecost further reveals to us the depths of God (see 1
Cor 2:11), that God is Trinity, all relationships are dramatically changed.
Before the Trinity was revealed, we were God’s people. After the Trinity
was further revealed through Jesus’ Paschal mystery, we can become
God’s family, even His adopted sons and daughters. Moreover, before
the Trinity was revealed, marriage included polygamy, concubines, and
divorce. When we began to realize that God is Trinity, Family, and
unconditional Love (1 Jn 4:8, 16), monogamy was obviously the essence
of marriage, divorce was superseded, and marriage and family became
a sacrament of Trinitarian love. Finally, these transformed, Trinitarian
relationships are so beautiful and life-giving that we have the
responsibility to tell everyone that the revelation of the Trinity can raise
every relationship to a new level of love.
We have been baptized into the Trinity, that is, we are immersed in
Trinitarian love. Let us live accordingly.
Prayer: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, You
are our Life, Love, and Family. We are all
Yours.
Promise: “God so loved the world that He
gave His only Son, that whoever believes
in Him may not die but may have eternal
life.” —Jn 3:16
Praise: “Persevere in God’s love, and
welcome the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ
which leads to eternal life” (Jude 21).

Part of Pope Francis' Pentecost Sunday homily, delivered
May 31, 2020, at the Basilica of St. Peter “There are different kinds of spiritual gifts,
but the same Spirit” (1 Corinthians 12:4),
as the Apostle Paul writes to the
Corinthians. He continues: “There are
different forms of service, but the same
Lord; there are different workings but the
same God who produces all of them in
everyone” (vv. 5- 6). Diversity and unity: St. Paul puts together two words that
seem contradictory. He wants to tell us that the Holy Spirit is the one who brings
together the many; and that the Church was born this way: we are all different, yet
united by the same Holy Spirit.
