Fr. Patrick Briscoe, OP, on the Most Holy Trinity

"O most holy Trinity, Undivided unity,Holy God, mighty God, God immortal, be adored!

"The heart of Christian confession and faith is the Holy Trinity.

"The Trinity marks everything we do as Christians. We begin our prayers with the Sign of the Cross, and offer every Eucharistic sacrifice 'Through Him, with Him and in Him, in the Unity of the Holy Spirit,' giving all glory to the Father.

"Prayers in the name of the Trinity are more than eloquent verbiage and quaint tradition. The Most Holy Trinity is the center of our faith. . . . 

"The Most Holy Trinity is the doctrine which gives life to all others and defines who we are and how we understand our faith. God has revealed Himself to us as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. But He has gone further still. . . ."

In a recent commentary, Father Patrick Briscoe, O.P., reflected on the Most Blessed Trinity, on the exchange of love these Persons share, and on the importance of us participating in this exchange of love.
