Ponderings, Wonderings, Wanderings

This Sunday is Trinity Sunday.  We (the church universal) started celebrating this Sunday sometime in the Tenth Century.  When we celebrate the Trinity we are celebrating the Triune God.  That is the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.   I read this explanation of the doctrine of the Trinity.  “God the Father who is for us, God the Son who is with us, and God the Holy Spirit who is within us.”

This explanation tells us that God who has always loved us, sent His Son so that we may better know this God who has always loved us.  God then sent His Holy Spirit to us to be implanted within us to always help us know the right decisions to make.

Just as we would not listen to Christ 2000 years ago, we will not listen now.  Some of us absolutely ignore the Holy Spirit speaking to our hearts, some of listen when we agree with what the Holy Spirit is saying and some of us listen, hear and act upon what God’s Holy Spirit is trying to tell us.

I have to admit that I have at times experienced all three of the above.  My human nature is constantly at war with the Holy Spirit struggling to exert my will over His Will.  Through prayer, meditation, study and God’s persistence and patience I move closer to Him.

Is your will His?  Are you actively seeking Him?  Reach out to Him and He will be there for He is already as close to you as your heart.  Pray, meditate and study.  Build your relationship with Him.

That is all He really wants, a relationship with you.

God’s Peace and Blessings to all,

Randy
