Sometimes people think that a church committee came up with the idea of the Trinity. But it didn't work like that -- it's here, rooted in Scripture, and once the church examined everything in Scripture, there was only one explanation left, as hard as it was to imagine. The Father and the Son cannot be separated -- they have lived for all of eternity in perfect harmony, with interpersonal loved, giving and receiving. Those who hear Jesus and honor him are honoring God. It's not simple, but it's beautiful. God the author of creation wrote himself into the story so that we might know the fullness of God's love for creation. And so we marvel at what God has done for us, and trust that there are even greater marvels than what we can see beyond this.
There are many flowers that await us over the ridge...
