00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:03,093
It’s not every day of the week
2
00:00:03,093 --> 00:00:05,414
that we hear Jesus telling us
3
00:00:05,414 --> 00:00:07,387
where the Trinity wants to live.
4
00:00:08,172 --> 00:00:09,421
Today is different.
5
00:00:10,267 --> 00:00:12,679
The Trinity, Father, Son and Spirit
6
00:00:12,679 --> 00:00:14,865
wants to make a home with us.
7
00:00:15,177 --> 00:00:16,103
A home.
8
00:00:16,789 --> 00:00:18,389
With all the thoughts and feelings,
9
00:00:18,389 --> 00:00:21,314
we associate with that one word,
10
00:00:21,314 --> 00:00:24,766
that is what God wants to set up in us.
11
00:00:26,061 --> 00:00:28,343
Entry is not by home invasion.
12
00:00:28,846 --> 00:00:31,874
The front door of our home, each of us as individuals,
13
00:00:31,874 --> 00:00:36,972
has no door knob on the outside, only on the inside.
14
00:00:37,802 --> 00:00:40,989
Yes, we are made in the image and likeness of God,
15
00:00:40,989 --> 00:00:42,855
Jesus, the Word made flesh,
16
00:00:42,855 --> 00:00:46,061
is the first born of many sons and daughters,
17
00:00:46,061 --> 00:00:49,511
but there is still a need for us to welcome personally
18
00:00:49,511 --> 00:00:51,608
Him and the Father and the Spirit.
19
00:00:53,101 --> 00:00:57,840
The building we call Church is more properly called the home of the Church.
20
00:00:58,404 --> 00:01:00,080
We the people of God,
21
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:01,528
the missionary disciples
22
00:01:01,528 --> 00:01:07,303
journeying together to make all things new
as the theme of the recent Archdiocesan Synod
23
00:01:07,303 --> 00:01:09,310
used as its theme,
24
00:01:09,310 --> 00:01:12,000
we are at home in this building.
25
00:01:12,785 --> 00:01:14,357
Everything in the building,
26
00:01:14,357 --> 00:01:18,084
the church, has a place and a purpose and is very homey.
27
00:01:18,762 --> 00:01:21,450
Pictures of loved ones, decorations,
28
00:01:21,450 --> 00:01:26,278
stained glass windows, beautiful covers for altars and ambos, and candles.
29
00:01:26,849 --> 00:01:28,415
All the stuff of home life.
30
00:01:28,903 --> 00:01:31,490
Though perhaps we don't have stained glass windows.
31
00:01:32,076 --> 00:01:36,743
Do we match this effort at decorating inside ourselves.
32
00:01:37,642 --> 00:01:41,049
When we are at home with the Trinity,
33
00:01:41,049 --> 00:01:45,040
peace is felt by all who visit
34
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,299
whom we welcome in.
