The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity

Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.

Jesus commands his followers to go make disciples of all nations in the name of the Holy Trinity and to teach them to observe the commandment to love God and our neighbors as Jesus loves us. But he does not send us on this mission alone. Our Father is with us, protecting us from evil. His Son, Jesus, is with us, loving us unconditionally. The Holy Spirit is with us, inspiring us to do what’s right. With the Holy Trinity for, with, and within us, we can do all good things.

Are we going forth and making disciples of the nations through our thoughts, words, and works? How often do we reflect on the role of the Holy Trinity in our lives? Do we thank the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit for being with us always?

O Lord, help us make disciples of all nations, to baptize them in the name of your Holy Trinity, and to teach them to observe all you have commanded.

Amen.
