Prayer
Dear God, on this Trinity Sunday, we remember Your wondrous and mysterious nature as one God in three persons. Even as we confess this truth and believe it, we admit that we cannot fully grasp it. It exceeds our comprehension and leads us to wonderment.
All praise be to You, God the Father, for Your love that pursues us and runs to welcome us home to You.
All praise be to You, God the Son, for Your faithfulness in giving Your life for us and our salvation.
All praise be to You, God the Spirit, for dwelling within and among us, so that we might be Your people.
All praise be to You, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, for Your glory and grace!
Postscript
The Gloria Patri
Glory be to the Father,
and to the Son,
and to the Holy Ghost.
As it was in the beginning,
is now,
and ever shall be,
world with out end.
Amen.
Amen.

Thanks for your willingness to make a comment. Note: I do not moderate comments before they are posted, though they are automatically screened for profanities, spam, etc., and sometimes the screening program holds comments for moderation even though they're not offensive. I encourage open dialogue and serious disagreement, and am always willing to learn from my mistakes. I will not delete comments unless they are extraordinarily rude or irrelevant to the topic at hand. You do need to login in order to make a comment, because this cuts down on spam. You are free to use a nickname if you wish. Finally, I will eventually read all comments, but I don't have the time to respond to them on a consistent basis because I've got a few other demands on my time, like my "day job," my family, sleep, etc.

Dude,
That icon represents the Trinity. It is one thing to paint Jesus in His humanity. It is quite another to give human form representation to to God in his essence. Please remove that picture.
