The Catholic Calendar for Sunday, May 22, 2005
The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity

Scripture from today's Liturgy of the Word:
Exodus 34:4b-6, 8-9
Deuteronomy 3:52, 53, 54, 55, 56
2 Corinthians 13:11-13
John 3:16-18


A reflection on today's Sacred Scripture:

So Loved (John 3:16-18)

God So Loved the world, (each soul for all of time) that He gave His only Son -- so that everyone who believes in Him might not perish but might have eternal life... that the world might be saved through Him.

Each of us is So Loved by God. He proposes to each of us eternal life together with Him. This is only possible through His Son who tenderly cleanses, and clothes in His grace, each of us as a beautiful beloved.

The Father sees each So Loved soul made beautiful through Him Who is our new and ever lasting Covenant.

Beloved, be loved...

We belove and are loved when we will to believe, through the gift of His grace of Faith, to live eternally as One. God’s only Son transforms every hideous vestige of our sins, the disfiguring, battered distortion and death that sin imposes through His Perfect beLoving of Self to the Father in His passion and death for us.

O Lord,
help me to enter in to the covenant with my fiat in my daily, hourly, moment-by-moment profession of faithfulness. I believe it is through, with and in You that eternal life is ours. I know Your only desire is that all might have eternal life. You give all that is needed. I need simply reply with a lifelong, “I do.”
