Happy Trinity Sunday!
We sat down to dinner this evening and discussed, with Isabella (age 3), the persons of the Trinity.
Baby Stephen just listened while playing with his toes.
We went back to the discussion about St. Patrick and how he explained the Trinity to non-believers. Three persons, one God-just like a shamrock-one shamrock, three leaves.
I then asked Isabella if she had any questions about God.
She said no.
I asked again, thinking she must have something to ask.
Again, she said "Nope".
Even when it comes to one of the greatest mysteries of the Faith, a child has no questions. Could it be that we make things more complicated than they need be?
I pray for the innocence and complete trust of a child.
